(x850 is a PCI-E Card)

I do know that most PCI-E cards require extra power (See most ATi Cards) directly from the Power Source.. Were there any extra cabels that came with the card that look like they could plug into the Power Source? It could be that your Power Supply can't handle the whole comp, and doesn't supply the nessasary power to the 3D Card.. What size (in Watts) is your current Powersource? What kind of processer? RAM? How many HD's? Are there any Case Fans, and if there are, How Many? I just upgraded to a AMD64 3500, and a PCI-E.. my old 350W power supply couldn't handle it. Bought a 420W, and runs fine. If you can, borrow a larger Power Supply from a friend and plug it into your computer.

Same prob here, but it's a HIS X800GT. I noticed two tiny switches on the top of the card at the back beside the PCI connectors. something to do with that maybe? please reply, or mail me at krezeb@hotmail.com thank you.

I Recently boaught an AMD Sempron 2400+... I installed it, and everything was fine until I noticed that in windows the processer is stuck at 995-1000 MHz... I know that this is way to low, it should be (according to the box) around 1.6 GHz.. I heard that AMD Down-clock their processers to prevent burn-outs. Is there something I should change in the BIOS that will set it to the proper speed?

Hi, I've got a computer running WinXP.. now up till a few minutes ago it was working perfectly. I was playing BF1942 and I got a Critical Error.. I chose to send the report to Microsoft. A few seconds later the computer stopped responding. I did a hard-restart and tried to login to my user again. I login, my backround loads but thats it. None of the stuff I've got on my desktop is showing, not even the Start/Task-bar. I pressed CTRL-ALT-DEL and checked to see if Explorer was running, and it WAS. I closed Explorer.exe and reopened it but nothing happened. The wierd thing is that I can log in as other users on this computer without problems, just not my one... help?

I works now.. I left the computer for about 30mins and explorer got it's act together and started working for some strange reason. Thx anyway for the help.
