Hi today purchased socket 1150 ( esonic h81da ) motherboard.

Every thing goes fine install windows 7 ultimate. Installed drivers for windows 7 installed fine , driver appears at device manager.

After that all seems ok , dxiag showd all enabled, but games not work with hardware acceleration. Trying many games ( blood2 , midtown madness) all of them crashing.

My gpu is msi gt 710 .

Im using this pc offline so cant get windows updates , so this maybe problem?

Looking at bios cant find anything related like pci-e ...

Thnks for answers.

Is that GPU known to be working? Tested in another system? As long as you have installed the correct Nvidia driver for the card, it should work. Most chipset drivers ootb win 7 should at least get you going, so I don't see an issue there.
Windows update is meaningless in this context.

Yeah, the i5 has an iGPU - Intel® HD Graphics 4600. You can try to connect your screen to either VGA or HDMI on the mainboard. Take the GT710 out in the meantime. Install the intel drivers (via USB stick?) for the iGPU and check if that at least attempts to run something.

It should even be on par or sometimes even faster than the GT710.
