I just installed a new Radeon 9500 in my system. I played hell getting the system stable but i finally did it. Now when I turn off the computer for a few minutes and turn it back on, I see the harddrive light come on for a second and then the computer will stop. No matter how many times I attempt to start it again, nothing will happen until I unplug the computer from the wall, let it sit for a minute or two and then plug it back in. Then it will restart. What the hell?? It wasn't doing this before I installed the Radeon 9500. I have a feeling it is the power supply but I don't understand why it would still work after I unplug it from the wall for a few minutes. I just bought an Antec 430Watt Truepower about 4 months ago and I have a hard time believing that it is the damn power supply again. This is about the fourth power supply I have gone through in about two years. It seems like additional power needed by the Radeon tipped it over the top. What do you think?? Suggestions, comments are welcome. Thx in advance for the advice.
