    Hi so my 6970m stopped working awhile back and I figured it was a bad card so I bought a 780m, I've done every procedure I can find online to make it work but I can't even get it to register in the bios. Neither the 6970 or 780m would work. Updated to a12 unlocked. Any suggestions ? Bad mxm port ?
