Pop Up Alert?
Hi there,
I am new in this forum and I wish to know what is going on on my graphci Card. (geforce 6800GS). Today, after booting my pc, before I started the new windows session, I have got an alert windows pop-up telling me that because there is not much power on the card the system have disable some future on the card. I have not made anything to my card, I 've just used as I do every day:working. I have restarted to test if there was not too much power, but the alert windows it doesn't not pop-up. Does anyone know if there is anything to test my card if I have power? thank for your support. pin |

Does anyone know if there is anything to test my card if I have power? Check the external power connection to the card. Remove and reseat or switch to another free connector. Possible your p/s is slowly failing and generating insufficient amounts periodically, enough to trigger the warning. I had this happed years ago with a 9800 Pro and a 350W generic. Worked fine for a year+, then would generate the warning every so often on bootup. Replacing the p/s with a decent one cured it. |

I had a power supply fail in just under one year. Luckily it was replaced
under warrenty. Before it failed, I noticed the top of my box (where the power supply is) would get very warm to the touch. "Gobo" wrote in message . ..

I have a similar problem with an albratron 7600 gs and it continues even though I changed the psu to a new one with more than double the wattage. The fan on the 7600GS series cards is notorious for the stock fan melting down. i bet it isnt even spinning in your case. Mine melted down and locked solid. Replaced it with an after market fan on my second system. |
