HD5450 Upgrade - No signal

[morti]

Hi

Just tried to replace my GPU with ta HD5450, unfortunately I'm not getting a picture at all (no boot screen) put the all card in and it works fine, do I have to enable it somewhere or should it just be plug & play - using Win 7 

cheers

The HD5450 doesn't work with the XL100 and no one seems to know why.

Thanks Oliver, I got the idea to upgrade to the HD5450 from this site

What would you recommend as a low cost alternative, im assuming from your other post the GPU is the reason for my BSOD in Win7 issue

Thats my site, I didn't write the article but the author did so in good faith. The HD5450 does work with most systems leading the community to believe it would work with all system. They is no known reason why it doesn't work with the XL100. Just one of those weird mysteries.

I have updated the article, thanks for letting me know.
