Hi There
If this is a problem with your mboard which it seems very likely and you computer or mboard are not in the warranty period Im afraid you are scuppered.
You have tried a different Graphics card in this slot eliminating a Graphics card Fault.
The only thing you might look at is in the BIOS to make sure the mboard is selecting the PCI slot for the first graphics, but I don't think that is it.
If you have the experience I would replace the mboard yourself.
If not look at buying a new base station. No one will ever consider trying to repair a mboard it is not economical or practical to try.

How can i check that in the BIOS, sorry my pc knowledge isnt that great lol.
On a side note, power is still definetly getting to the PCI slot as when a gfx card with a fan is insrted and the PC is booted up the fan activates on the card.

Hi There I cant tell you for sure how to get into your BIOS as some of them are different.
On my two computers I get into the BIOS by pressing the delete key on boot and on my other pressing the F2 key on boot,
but yours might be different normally when your PC tries to start there is instructions at the bottom of the screen of how to get into setup or BIOS.
I dont want to dissharten you but I dont thing that will be the problem.
Kindest Regards Tony B.
