    Re-post and update of some problems I need help with.

    Well, good news....HP is going to fix the code purple free of charge even though the comp is out of warranty. I don't even have to pay for the shipping =). However, HP asked me to take out the new card and put back in the old power supply, so what happens when I get my comp back and want to...

    How do I get the BSOD errors? I'm only minor computer savvy lol. And I just did a system restore, so the system should be clean yes? Even if that's not the case, I scan regulary with currently updated Trend.

    Framerate issues with 9800GTX

    I had to upgrade my power supply as well to accomodate the new card. I'm now using a BFG Tech 650 power supply. The DC output is 26A at +3.3V and 28A at +5V.
