First of all, tell us your full specs:
CPU-RAM-Mbotherboard-Power Supply Unit-Case-Monitor?

GTS250 need one 6pin power connector from PSU.
A Quality 400W PSU like Corsair, Antec, Seasonic, OCZ, SilverStone are enough to run a single GTS250.

We need to know your power supply to find this open up the cpu case and look for a box with lots of wires coming out of it. On top of that box there will be a sticker. Try finding something that says max voltage out put or similar to it.

Make sure your cpu is at least a Intel Pentium 4 processor in order to run the card.

All i can say at the moment untill i find out how much your power supply can dish out.

I own a Gts 250.

That's the voltage going in, so what's the wattage coming out?
