ok so i've got the Visiontek 32mb gf2 in my new system and it loaded up the first time and everything was workign fine.. installed the drivers from the cd, restarted and things were still fine...
I had the comp on for about 6 hours after that and then turned it off to go to bed...
started the comp up this morning and get into xp and it tells me that my card cannot start... i uninstalled/reinstalled the card but it just came back up with that same card cannot start message in device manager... The card didn't go bad or anythign did it? I mean, I have my monitor attached to the card so if it went bad i wouldn't get any video right?
If it's not a bad vid card, how do i fix the problem...

and where do i get this power strip program i keep hearing ppl refer to?

TIA
