OMEN Desktop PC 25L GT11-0000i / GT12-0000i (7WM02AV)
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I have this HP Omen computer with a RTX 3070 graphic card, I want to replace it, and have now tried 5 different older cards, and each of them just give me black screen... I dont even see boot or bios.
But when I put the RTX 3070 back in, it starts fine again and all is normal.

 

So my question it, do HP have some sort of lock, maybe on the MB... that makes it not possible to put another card in my PC ?

Hi:

 

The only suggestion I can offer would be to disable secure boot in the BIOS and see if one of your old graphics cards work that way.

 

See this link for the settings to change.
