What kind of 380w psu? Is it a generic ppower supply or a reputable brand like fortron, enermax, or antec? I would say that as long as it's a brand name power supply like the ones i mentioned above, it should be plenty for that system.

:thumbsup: Any quality power supply above 350 watts should run that system fine.

Does it have enough 12volt amps? I disabled one of the CDROMS made sure the card was seeded correctly. Also when it does freeze up I here a high pitch squeel from the speakers on my old 5600 this never happend and when I installed the new card the only thing I did was move the ATI card from the slot under it to a free slot at the other end so thier was nothing to close to the AGP card fan.

The 6600GT AGP cards require a power lead connected to the video card. Did you do this?

Yup I got the 12v connected to the video card but I thin I figured out the problem moved the sound card down a slot and its woring great now
