Product: HP Pro 3300 Series MT
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I fitted a Cooler Master G750M to my HP 3300 MT  about 4 years ago & added an AMD Radeon 4GB 7700 GPU. The max of 8GB RAM is installed & all ran perfectly. The RadenGPU failed last week, so I added a PNY GF1060GTX6, but the PC would not boot. THe fans start/slow down/stop/start up etc... I have the 6-pin power supply plugged into the card. I tried removing the motherboard battery to reset BIOS, but no joy. Cannot get latest BIOS for M/B to try that.

Anyone any ideas? Does the MB not support this card? - cannot get that inforrmation anywhere.

 

Many thanks!

The Radeon 7700 was not a EFI video card. It was a legacy video card and compatible with your  HP Pro 3300 Series MT desktop PC.

 

The PNY GeForce 1060 GTX6 is an EFI card.  It is incompatible with the BIOS in your  HP Pro 3300 Series MT desktop PC
