When you tried linux Did you install the drivers for the card? Try running off onboard & installing the correct drivers in linux if you have not already

Edit: just noticed it won't load into linux either. Try running onboard & through terminal check if the slot is reading the card? Also is there power getting to the card at all?


This is what makes me think it's the motherboard. I can have the GPU plugged in, but run the graphics onboard instead of on the GPU (with monitor plugged into mobo of course).
When I do this in both Linux and Windows I am able to view the card is installed and its information (Firmware version, serial number, etc.)
Additionally I can use the nvflash utility and I am able to boot into a DOS environment and flash the card BIOS/firmware successfully.

doesn't matter at this point, he's clearly stating the main clear signs of a bad card.


This is also what I thought originally. But if that we're the case, it wouldn't make sense that it boots on the first time on my friends computer.

True!

I just had a weird idea that since it worked on his friends pc with no errors maybe a power supply is failing and it's not getting the voltage needed for the card if he's using a lower psu


This is also possible. I'm running a 660ti and a 3770k, 8GB of RAM. So my components shouldn't be too power hungry for my 650W EVGA Single Rail Power Supply - Though it would be possible it's broken and can't deliver enough power to the GPU for whatever reason.

Follow these steps exactly by order:
(don't ask me why just do it, I'm not here to argue nor discuss)

1 Turn off computer
2 Switch off power supply
3 Wait 30 seconds
4 Unplug the power supply cable from the wall
5 Wait 30 seconds
6 remove gpu from the computer
7 Restart in safe mode
8 Run DDU and clean all the graphic drivers and previous folders
9 Restart and wait 1 minute (install intel graphics if it asks or don't do nothing)
10 Turn off computer and switch off power supply
11 Install your gpu back on
11 Start computer normally and install your gpu drivers from the website

You could just open the power supply & see if any compacitors are budged or leaking. Also have you tried booting from onboard & uninstalling the graphics driver you updated when it asked? Just remove the whole download & Google the card & see if others are having issues. I know on linux in the past some driver updates would cause issues with my pc so I had to fall back to a previous version :)
