Help! I was stoked when my new Chaintech NVidia Ge7600GS 256MB AGP card arrived and I put it in my W3052's AGP slot. Then nothing. The monitor is plugged into it, but I get no picture at all. I had also upgraded the PSU to 480watts just prior to inserting the video card. I'm pseudo-computer literate, so please "spell it out" for me. When I removed the new card, everything worked just fine again. What the heck???
I had this same problem with my computer and i had to find out the hard way.... DON"T reprogram anything... If you really want that video card to work... buy a power supply!!! On these new computers... companies are building them with as little expense as possible so it makes sence that they would only put in a big enough power supply to power what they put in it! It may have the plug for your video card but i promise... a new powersupply will do the trick! you can get an earthwatts powersupply pretty inexpensivly at say bestbuy... or you can check out newegg and order one! As i said ... i found out the hard way... i called the company my videocard was from and i couldn't believe what they told me... but i only had a 250 wattpower supply! So i bought a 500 watt and all is well! Let me know how you fair! I promise... you'll be stoked again!
You have to reprogram your pc. or try changing the jumpersetting. disabling your onboard video display. hop this solves the problem.

What do you mean? I have no idea how to do that. I tried to uninstall my diplay adapter, but it says my computer needs it to boot properly. Can you be really specific? I sure would appreciate it.
Guess what? I figured it out. This particular card has a port for power supply which wasn't connected because I had no idea it existed on an AGP card!!! Works fine now. Thanks anyway.
