Only Detects Intel 4600 Not GTX 750 - NEW PC

14 day return policy huh. Whats the point of geek squad then doh.

 

[Thalyn]

They're pretty useless. Best Buy just gives you 14 days from the date of delivery to return opened products. Obviously this is something you have to open to see if it works.

I did try to cancel the PSU about an hour after I ordered it, gave them a call but it's already on the shipping line. It wasn't that expensive and I used gift cards to buy it. It's more than I need but I'd rather have too much than too little.

 

[eidairaman1]

Its possible that during shipping something got jarred loose.

Yeah, it can't hurt to have more PSU than you need. I was just trying to save you a little money. It leaves you plenty of room for a GPU upgrade in the future.

 

[Thalyn]

More than likely. I am quite certain that is what happened, it was packaged pretty damn well but these things still happen.

The one I ordered instead of the Zeus Mini i300 should not have that issue, I do not believe it has the ribbon cable for the GPU as it is a full sized case. The Zeus was a mini case so required the cable for the GPU.

Keep it on the shelf until you need it. (if it does in fact void your warranty)

 

[Thalyn]

I'll either replace the PSU in the PC or do that, shelf it until I need it. Waiting to hear from Cyperpower's customer service with respect to all that. If they tell me to replace it, I'll go ahead and do that since I'd rather have a decent PSU in there than one with a very high failure rate and uneven power. The standard PSU's are apparently the "Extreme Gear" ones, which I hear are complete crap. If that's the case, rather not take my chances with it and get the new one in.

PC came a half hour ago or so. Connected it, GPU is fine. Just loading up programs on it now.

PSU should be here next week. Mobo in this system is: ASRock H81M-HDS.

Everything seems to be working perfectly fine so far.

 

[eidairaman1]

Thank goodness. Just run it at factory and tell us of any problems or not

 

[Thalyn]

So far so good, will update if there are any issues.

A lot of room for upgrades in this case, so that's good. Looking at it now, I am actually pretty glad that I had to return the Zeus Mini. That would have been a bitch to upgrade in the future because of the case.

 

[Thalyn]

The RAM is from A-Data Technology (two 4 GB's to equal 8). I've personally never heard of them.

 

[eidairaman1]

Adata has been around since the 90s atleast.

 

[Thalyn]

Thanks just never heard of them before. But then, I don't build my own systems so that's partly why.

They are a pretty decent Oem.

I had a set of pc 3200 Ddr from them as interim for a set of crucials that failed

Ok so not sure if this is a driver-related issue but as of 20 minutes ago the PC now basically restarts whenever GPU-related is done. PC boots up, turn on Chrome...restarts. I uninstalled the drivers and installed the latest ones. PC rebooted midway through driver installation the first time. Second time it installed the drivers but didn't quite finish and rebooted. They are installed, however. I am now downloading over 50 updates in Windows Update. When I started doing that I got the error "display driver stopped responding and has recovered". It's still installing so far. Had this error come up just now "jp2launcher.exe - Bad Image"

It's still going with downloading the updates. I'm not sure why it's doing this considering I was able to use it without issue for over an hour doing the same things that are now causing it to reboot. When I uninstalled the drivers for the GPU, I could obviously turn on Chrome and the like with no issue.

If it's the PSU, well I have a new one coming likely next week. My friend said his friend had a similar issue yesterday and his PC was also rebooting in relation to anything with the GPU, what caused it was Windows 8 and it was solved when they reverted to Windows 7, except his GPU under device manager just said it was not working correctly. Mine says it is.

System doesn't have AVG. Doesn't have anything like that, it's pretty bare in terms of pre-loaded programs.

woops was replaying to two thread at once nm
anyway manually update the drivers nvidia had a issue with that awhile ago
you can try disabling aero peek right click on the taskbar and uncheck use peek

I uninstalled the drivers that were already there on the PC. They were I think 334 something so not too old. That made me able to turn on Chrome without having it reboot, obviously.

Manually got the new drivers for the GTX 750 from Nvidia. First install, PC rebooted while installing and didn't manage to install them. Tried again. Second time it didn't quite finish the installation before reboot but the drivers are now there. Going to see if Windows Update fixed anything because I had quite a few updates to install.

If that doesn't do it. I will try to install the drivers again and hopefully get a good installation. Should this issue persist, I am not quite sure.

 

[OneMoar]

if the drivers aren't installing thats never good could be something minor probably isn't ..
return it get your money back and built it your self
seriously you are O for two with cyberpower

Windows Updates finished and Chrome doesn't make it reboot anymore. Before as soon as I clicked to turn on Chrome, it would reboot.

If it continues down the line, I believe it's the PSU and I have a replacement coming so hopefully it's that easy of a fix. I knew the PSU they include is shit.

Exactly what psu it is?

Regardless, I returned the PC today at Best Buy. Got a full refund, even for the shipping. Ordered this one online:
http://www.bestbuy.ca/en-CA/product...spx?path=36c497acafff44f0a2902454e95d4177en02

I hate to kick you while your down but you will HATE that 750 cause its not going to perform as well as you hope

 

[Thalyn]

Not sure. But apparently Xtremegear or something like that. A lot of the off-shelf CyperpowerPC systems have shit PSU's.

Those are buggy drivers. Take from the nvidia site the second latest version, not the latest. I had the latest version fail on me the same way, although it went through the install and just froze after. A restart fixed it but every now and then this error message pops up when i run certain programs. Remove the drivers, download the second latest WHQL and clean install them. Should fix everything.
