If anyone has any ideas.. .. bought a PCI 256 DDR video card for my old HP 766 PIII computer, 180 watt PSU. The card says 250 watt min. Ok, so I put in a 450 wt PSU, and still didn't fix the problem. Just realized there is a PSU connector on the video card, a 2-pin connector. Could this be the cause of the problem? I will have to get a adapter since my PSU doesn't have a 2-pin connector. EVGA GeForce 6200 Video Card

This is the video card.. http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicat...?EdpNo=3301409&csid=ITD&body=MAIN#detailspecs

Computer will boot, then it resets itself 5 min into windows xp. Could it be anything in the bios? thanks for input.

Just downloaded the current drivers from EVGA's website and it seems to be working now on the 180 watt PSU. You guys think I should put the 450 watt PSU in to be safe since it says min 250 wt PSU? thanks.
