hey guys, im having trouble with this new video card i got. I tried to install it numerous times before but it hasn't worked out for me. Its a geforce 6200 that fits a AGP slot. first problem i had when actualy sliding it into the slot was that the end of the card didnt realy fit in with the lock over it ( hard to explain but will find a pic soon) but i did get the computer on and running for a few seconds. first the fan on the card didnt start up , then i gave it a lil push and now it works. then i would get to my wallpaper screen with new resolution, set it up but when i launched my game my comp would turn off. i reseted it then it gets to wallpaper screen and shuts offf, and dose that numerous times, some times it dosent even let my moniter turn on. I think i might have a bad power supply, or something with the driver. Im not to shure and i just want to get this card installed.

-thanks

uninstall previous videocard driver in add/remove programs, shutdown the pc, install new card & load the drivers.
