I recently got an RTX 5070 Ti, and while I'm waiting for new parts, I thought I'd try it out in my old PC setup. My system is a Strix B450-F with a Ryzen 7 2700. Everything seems fine until I install the NVIDIA drivers, then the display goes black and an orange debug LED lights up. My previous graphics card, a GTX 1660 Ti, works perfectly. What could be causing this issue? Any help would be appreciated!

It sounds like your BIOS might need an update. Try updating it to the latest version using your old GPU first. Once that’s done, make sure to disable CSM in the BIOS and enable options like resizable bar and above 4G decoding. These steps usually help with driver installations and should prevent the black screen issue.
I already updated the motherboard to the latest version and CSM was disabled.
