Hello,
My name is Brian and I'm having a bit of an issue. My Area 51 desktop, without adding any hardware or software changes, would lock up at random with the screen showing strange markings. I did some research on my laptop and determined it was a video card issue (was told by friend as well that the symbols were artifacts). So about a month of saving I bought the EVGA NVIDIA 580 Graphics card to replace it. After installing and using the 2 six pin to a single 8 pin adapter that comes with it the computer doesnt start. All the fans run, the monitors stopped showing no connection, but it remained a black screen. I followed the directions step by step. Could it be something else?
