PSU. i'd suggest trying a diff. card, but thats not usually feasible for most people I've got the same video card, power supply, AND the same problem, except, now, my video card doesn't power on 90% of the time when I turn on my computer. that seems to be...

Video card driver updates for Laptop (unofficial) Power Problems. Well I updated to the latest Nvidia drivers using the driverheaven Modification tool, and now I can't game on battery because the card goes in low power mode. I tried manually OCing, and I tried...

Power : did you have the auxillary power connector hooked up to the card? Ooh, so that's what its for.. But my card don't have the power connector on it. I tried hooking a connector to the mb, but that didn't do anything. The TV is Sony Braic 47inch...

Possible power problem. Hi all, I just replaced my video card and my cpu. I went from a radeon 9000 to a radeon 9800pro and from a xp2000+ to sempron 3000+. I have a generic 400W power supply. The problem is that sometimes i can hear the fans slow down....

these adapters have two "Molex" connectors is that some cards need more power than one wire can provide. Each "Molex" has only one 12V wire, so the ideal solution is to use two separate power leads to power the two "Molex" connectors. As I said, the "right"...

my computer either freezes or re-boots itself. From what I've read on these boards regarding ATI 9700 cards and power supplys I'm wonding if I'm not getting enought power? So I tryed installing an older GEFORCE II card to see if the ATI card was the problem....

tho I'll admit that some games are so poorly written as to use software rendering features (CPU powered) rather than hardware features (Graphics card powered)...but I had no problem play Marrowind at 1024x768, full detail, on a 3 year old video card (Radeon...

one of them to be sure). Is it just dumbing down the power supply, causing the video card to have an insufficient amount of power to run in a heavy load environment? Also, since the card has a (12 volt?) additional plug that it has attached via a molex...

You can buy adaptors to convert from them to molex. By the way, the card is working fine without the additional power connector hooked up? I would guess you're not overclocking it in anyway - have you gamed with it without problem? Does you PSU have a pcie...
