Update your mobo bios to the latest.
Uninstall mobos onboard gfx card driver.
Disable onboard Gfx from bios
Set pci-e as primary graphics display or some thing like that from bios.

Re-sit your graphics card properly.

If ur graphics card requires addtional power than provide them from the smps - you should have gotten necessary cables with the gfx card - read the manual on how to install them.
