I'm hoping someone can help me out with this because neither me or my friend can figure it out. I just built a new gaming PC and i'm using a Radeon HD 4870 (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102810). The problem first occured after installing the drivers and catalyst software for the card, I shut down the computer and it appeared to freeze during shutdown so I manually turned it off. When I powered on again I got the 3 red lights on the card and I got no display on screen. After playing with it trying to find out why for hours I gave up. When I got home again today I turned it on and it worked. No idea why. However after an hour or so of installing crap and updating windows, when it began installation of Vista Service Pack 1, my system froze so I manually powered down again. Upon powering on again I had the 3 red lights again and am not getting any display. Can someone please help me with this. I'm not an expert at this, my friend has been helping me out but neither of us seem to be able to find the problem. From what i've read the 3 lights have something to do with a power problem but everything else seems to be running fine. Here's my specs.
