Alert! PCI Express card is operating in x1 mode...

Expand Post »
I just installed a PCI-E nVidia card into my slot and it can go x16, but I get this message when I boot...

Alert! PCI Express card is operating in X1 mode, Strike F1 to continue or F2 for Setup Utility.

I have a Dell 4700.

Thanks!!

Interestingly, I opened the case and realized the card was not fully seated. I hope this helps anyone else who has the same problem.

not sure about pci-e have never dealt with one .but find lots on google about the error ,checking the settings in the bios seems like a method used for some when the reseting does nothing .
