Hi,
I just bought a new video card (Sapphire Radeon HD 4670, 1gb, DDR3) in order to be able to do more then browsing the internet, because my old one was in my motherboard. I followed all the instructions to install it. Then I restarted my computer, everything looked alright, but after several minutes (2-5 minutes) my computer restarted with a blue screen and did this every 2 to 5 minutes.
So I looked at the minimum requirements and found out that I needed a power supply with 400w minimum (I had a 300w), so I went to a store and bought a 450w and thought that this would solve the problem. But I still have the same problem, computer crashing every 2 to 5 minutes.
Here are some info from the Everest Program (the video card that I currently use is the old one):
If you need any other information please let me know.
Thanks a lot,
Cope
