Default A8N-SLI and BFG GF 6800 GT OC -NVIDIA System Sentinel power warning

Hello,

I have just built a new system using the following new parts:

Asus A8N-SLI (PCIe) [BIOS 1003]
BFG GeForce 6800 GT OC PCIe (NVIDIA GE 6800 Series GPU driver 6.6.9.3)
1gb Corsair RAM
Ultra X-Connect 500w PS (12vdc - 34amps)
2 - Sata hdd (Samsung, 160gb ea)
1 - Pioneer DVD Writer drive

I am getting a message (attached) that the "..NVIDIA System Sentinel is
reporting that the NVIDIA-powered graphics card is not receiving sufficient
power". I know that is not true unless the dongle or its recepticle is
faulty (I already swapped PS). Do you have a command line method to read the
voltage being supplied to the video card?

I have built many PC's so I think I need help with this one. I am going to
see if there are newer NVIDIA drivers on your site. Have you heard of this
message and power NOT being the cause?

Thank you,
David
