Hey everyone. It's time for an upgrade! But oh noes! Nothing ever goes to plan.... The issue I'm having is that with my x1950 in, everything works fine! Yay! But when I take it out and plug in the x4870, my SATA 3.0g/b drive disappears from my bootable device list. It then tries to boot from my non-bootable IDE drive, goes down the line until it hits the Yukon PXE (never set up), and fails the boot altogether. #fail. I currently have my x1950 running on a single molex-PCIe adapter, from 1 rail. The x4870, as you know, takes 2 6pins. This means I'm now running the x4870 on 2 molex-PCIe connecters, 1 on each 20A rail. But it doesn't seem to have a problem with power, because when I unplug 1 6-pin, it says "You have not plugged in one of your 6-pins! blah blah".
I've uninstalled the x1950 Pro drivers, as well as ATT, and I'm pretty sure I have a fairly new CMOS. But I don't know how to update it...
Current specs:
GA-965G-DS3 (Rev 2.0, I think...) Mobo
250gb SATA 3.0g/s HDD
250gb IDE HDD
E6600
550W PSU
ATI x1950 Pro GPU
Upgrade:
SAME
SAME
SAME
Diamond x4870 GPU
Any help that you can provide will leave me eternally grateful xD
