I have win 7 home premium 32bit installed on my desktop. Recently I upgraded my graphics card. After upgrading, everything seems to be working fine. But I'm not able to get, why is the windows logo not being displayed during boot? Before upgrading, it was okay.

Then don't worry about it, its a windows problem not your GPU problems. Windows is full of errors. :)

Open command prompt and type this: sfc /scannow

Wait for it to finish and reboot.

Also what GPU do you have?

Do you have the latest driver installed?

Check it: Windows Animated Logo Not Appearing on Boot Up - Windows 7 Forums

And report after you had done everything sad there.


PS: Hope your windows is genuine, or the closest to the genuine version, on some severely hacked version the bootscreen is taken out.
