  First, make sure that the GPU is properly connected to the motherboard and power supply. Check the cables and connectors to ensure they are securely attached. If everything seems fine, try reseating the GPU in the PCIe slot. Sometimes a loose connection can cause display issues. Restart your mining rig and see if the GPU starts displaying. If not, try connecting the GPU to a different PCIe slot to rule out any issues with the slot itself. Additionally, check if the GPU fans are spinning and if there are any error lights or codes on the GPU. These can indicate hardware issues that may require further troubleshooting or contacting the manufacturer for support.
