Maya Spotlight rendering black spot or not at all

I have Maya 2018 and am working on a street scene. All the Arnold lights work great, but when I try a standard spot light in the scene nothing happens until I turn up the intensity AND exposure to literally over a million, then all I get is a big black spot where the lights should shine. I've tried everything I can think of, turn normalize off and on, created a whole new scene and imported everything into it, deleted the preference folder, etc. Could it be my video card? (which is not the best) Any suggestions would help

How big is the scene? What is in the scene? Is there Atmosphere Volume? Can you upload a screengrab or a simplified scene with the spot light in it?
