Desktop Freeze

[diako_lorddm]

Hi
I bought SB i5 2300 with msi h67ma-e45 MB .
when I work with on-board graphic It has no problem . but when I connected videocard (GTS250) when I run 3d programs (games or windows 7 rating) every thing freezes and I doesn't enter the game .and I have to reset computer .
I thought it might be my VideoCard problem so I used another Video card (my brother's 9500GT) and this time even it couldn't start up windows .
what do u think problem is ?
I think it is MB PCI-Express slut problem .what do u say ?
(535W power , 2X2Gb 1333 ram)

When you added the stand-alone video cards, did you install the current video drivers from Nvidia?

You may need to remove all current drivers (google and download/install/run driversweeper) and then re-install from scratch.

Good luck!

yes I did !
I even re-install videocard driver

What make/model of power supply are you using? Need more information than the 535w rating you indicated earlier to make a proper assessment.

Not all PSUs are created equally.

no . 535 is enough !

I took a look at the specs for your PSU, and I honestly think it is not a very good power supply. I wouldn't rely upon it to last very long.

I would suggest you can a better quality PSU (like this Seasonic). With PSUs, you really do get what you pay for:
