Anyways,
I was playing KOTOR (awesome game) and all of the sudden my graphics go really weird and stuff. I dont overclock and have a radeon 9800 pro in my old dell, so I said whatever. I reset the computer and then it tells me I need to make sure the power supply is hooked to the radeon. I am a little confused, so I tried restarting again and it did the same thing.
Ok, so I open up my case and remove my video card. The top (of the four) pins of the card's power supply is brown, and the power supply connecter from the internal power supply (the top one of the four as well) is also brown, but cracked. Anyways, I hook up a different lead to the radeon and eveything works fine now.
Weird.......
