Hi all,

Just put together a new system. I had ordered a 7900GTO from mwave but it seems DOA. The fan won't turn on and I don't get any video on booting. Furthermore, my super lanboy doesn't have a speaker so I can't hear any beeps.

I've tried both pci-e slots on my board, but still no fan. I've also tried both pci-e power cables from the psu, and the 4-pin molex x2 -> pci-e connector adapater.

I'm going to a friend's house to do some more trouble shooting, but in the meantime does anyone have any suggestions? Is this definately DOA? System specs:

c2d e6600 on p5b deluxe, ultra v-series 600w psu, seagate 320gb 7200.10, soundblaster x-fi exterememusic, all in a super lanboy

Thanks,
y
 
Turns out the gpu fan wasn't plugged in all the way....

as for no video, the ram i was using was too slow (ddr2 400). Everything works now, thanks!
