SkeeterBeeter Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Pains getting the video card to work with games. The games try to load then unload.. Installed correctly in the PCI slot , current drivers are installed and DirectX 9.0 installed. I disabled the onboard drivers also. I went thru the procedure to install several x's and I am getting nowhere.I am calling Tech support Monday. Any suggestions will be entertained. edited: Well, problem might be my system can only handle 145 watts and the card needs more. I will know more after conversation w/ Tech today....

Sniper Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 You may have hit on the problem. GeForce 5500 card should be pulling around 42watts. Add that to 60-100watts for your CPU, 20-30watts for your Optical drive, 25watts for hard drive, and 10watts for each stick of memory. That can leave you a little sort.
