P4P800E Deluxe and Gainward GeForce 6800LE problem
Hi!
I have just installed a new Gainward Ultra/2100LE GeForce 6800LE card on my ASUS P4P800E Deluxe based PC and encountered a very annoying problem. The card has an alarm buzzer for the card's additional power supply which goes off as soon as I turn on the switch on the power supply unit and keeps buzzing until pressing the ATX power switch to start the PC. While the PC is running there are no problems and the VGA card works great. If I shut down the PC the alarm goes off again and buzzes until I turn off the switch on the PSU. If I install the VGA card in my other PC with ASUS CUSL2 motherboard, there are no alarms when the PC is turned off. Has anyone had a similar problem and found a solution for it? Is there a jumper setting to be changed on the motherboard or a BIOS setting that will cure this? All ideas are appreciated, thanks in advance Mladen |

All ideas are appreciated, thanks in advance Mladen Not sure what the buzzer is for but I would think it is a warning of sorts. In this case, it would indicate a voltage supply problem when the system is in "Shut Down" state. You may want to take a close look at your ATX power supply. |

I replaced the PSU with a new 480W Thermaltake, but still the same problem |

If so, do you have a connector connected to it, one from a separate unused group of power connectors? |

Is there anything else connected using the same molex connection as the
video? Mine couldn't share a power connection with my CD/DVD drive. "massa" wrote in message ... "RaceFace" wrote in message ... "massa" wrote in message ... "Thagor" wrote in message .. .

I replaced the PSU with a new 480W Thermaltake, but still the same problem Well, you definitely took a look at it! Surely you have checked for jumpers on the card and possible driver settings that would cause this so I will yield further comments to those who have experience with this card. |

There are no jumpers on the card and the drivers are not loaded until the PC is started, so it has to be a motherboard issue. Thank you for your time |

I removed the Modem from PCI slot 3 and everything works normally! |
