    My gdc beast v8 just came in but my laptop won't power it on.

    I've got this:
    500W coolermaster silent pro
    evga gtx 950 sc
    dell 3340 laptop with 250GB ssd and 8GB ram
    windows 10 pro
    ngff connector from beast replacing wifi card

    I've proven the power supply and graphics card work in another pc. I tried looking for an obvious bios solution but can't see one. I can't disable any internal graphics.

    If I try to install the driver it says no card recognized.

    I also tried switching the small ATX power switch on the gdc beast to on. As well as the delay switch, 7s and 15s but no dice.

    That's just a pic of the ngff connector I replace the wifi card with.
