400W PowerSupply
Pentium D CPU 2.66GHz
WinXP MCE
Ok, I'm in the process of installing the new video card in my friend's system and can't seem to get it working.
Until now, the computer has been using the onboard video and now the user wants to play some games. Knowing the motherboard is PCIe x16 1.0, we ordered the above mentioned video card for it.
Everything works just fine with the video card NOT installed.
When I install the Video Card, the system will power on, the fans will run fast, and the POST will not complete. There is no signal to the monitor out of either VGA port (onboard and card).
BIOS is set to look for PCIe cards first
IS it a bad card? Is it a BIOS setting? Is it a jumper? Is it not enough power?
