New Build
Hi All,
Just completed a new build, so when I booted up for the first time I found out that I was getting no signal from the graphic card, so therefore I can't get into the bios etc. I have been on to the supplier and they have asked me to do several checks, like moving the memory around etc but still no joy. I am a bit concerned about the power supply to the graphic card. The graphic card has only a six pin connector and in the Thermaltake manual it tells you to use the embedded 8 pin PCIe supply, but the problem is the graphic card is only six pin so I had to use the PCie modulised cable which is six pin, my concern is whether I'm getting enough power to the graphic card. At the moment the power is getting to the graphic card as the fan works ok,but that's about it I'm still getting no signal to the monitor. Or is there another gremlin about in the system, any help would be appreciated. Regards. Busyboy Thermaltake 850 watt PSU Abit IP35Pro INTEL CORE 2 DUO E8400 2 X 3.00G SAPPHIRE HD 4850 512MB PCI-E |
