Sapphire Radeon 9800SE + Shuttle machine = Problems
Hi!
I bought a Sapphire Radeon 9800SE 128M 256 bit VGA card a week ago. After installing it to my computer (details later) I noticed some audio problems.. Listening to -for example- mp3- music, the song played for few seconds. Then sound got lost for a second or two, and came back.. Some files wouldn´t play at all. Similar problems with DivX/Xvid video.. Ecept no audio at all. I also got some strange problems with corrupted data on my HD. The Hard drive turned out to be defective, because later I couldn´t get the system to work well even with the old VGA card. I replaced the HD, and installed all software. Now the machine works, but with the old VGA card. Any ideas on what might be wrong with my new vga card? Is it defective, or incompatible with my system? I wrote to Shuttle technical help, and they mentioned something aboat voltage problems with some Sapphire VGA cards.. Any info on that? (The sapphire card requires a secondary power connector to be connected. I Didn´t even test without it) What I´v tested: * New bios * Several vga driver versions * Couple of sound driver versions * 3-4 repairing installations of OS * 2 clean installs of WinXP Pro & SP1 * 350W PSU (Shuttle original is 200W) My computer: * Shuttle SB61G2 SFF * Intel P4 2.6GHz HT 800MHz FSB * 2 x Twinmos 256M DDR running Dual channel * Samsung 160G SATA- drive (first drive) * Maxtor 160G SATA- drive (replacement) * LG DVD+-R/RD/RAM writer * 200W PSU * XFX GF FX5200 128M VGA- card (The one with wich this machine works) * Sapphire Radeon 9800SE 128M 256bit card (wich I´m trying to get to work) * Windows XP Pro Quite long description.. Hope I didn´t make too many errors in my english.. - Jiri K. |
