[chooky]

My computer is as per my sig and it posts fine with only the 1 normal beep .Then immediately after POSTing I get a warning message, no beeps just a text on screen warning message.
The warning message is




Warning:SLI mode VGA power failure




But I'm only running one video card as per my sig , Leadtek 6600gt which only needs mainboard power ie no extra power on the video card .Also the EZY selector is set to single mode.

Any ideas?

Many thnx

Hmmm, make sure about the basics. All power connectors and sli card secure, including the EZ plug. I know that PSU runs 28A on a single 12v line, so that should be OK. There can be a lot of issues with that GPU if you install all its bundled software - just use the driver. What are your 3 power levels like? Stable readings?

Thanks for your reply TheNiceGuy . I read on another forum to reverse the EZcard position and it worked.

I've got another question for ya if you like. I"'using a Tagan 480 TG480 w01 power supply 480 watts which comes with a grounding wire , any idea what I screw that to?

Thanx for your previous assistance

I believe you would want to ground the wire to the case, or the metal screw that is on the faceplate of the wall receptical.
