I ordered this from newegg a few days ago.
Asus P5W DH Deluxe
C2D E6700

Previously, I was using this,
http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16817341002
but I RMA'd it because the OCZ PSU is for SLI and didn't have adequate power on the 12V rail.
I started up my computerand installed Windows XP along with all of my drivers. I never updated the BIOS, however, which I probably should have done. The next time I restart it, it doesn't boot. The red LED on my GPU still comes on, which I thought to be indicative of inadequate power. That's why I upgraded my PSU; the Silverstone one is plenty to power the rest of my system as well as the 1900XT.
I'm posting this now because the red LED still comes on, even after I correctly plugged in the new power supply. From what I've searched for on the internet, I've found that it's most likely a bad GPU or mobo. I RMA'd both and replacements will arrive later in the week. If this doesn't fix the problem, does anyone have any other ideas as to what the problem could be?
Thanks in advance.
