I bought this sound card recently from someone on here and im having some trouble.

After installing the sound card i get no video and my 5850 fan is wide open.

any suggestions?

Im running Win 7 64
 
I put the sound card in another PCI X16 slot and it still gives me problems on boot up. If i do a hard restart, it will boot into windows but if the PC goes to sleep it wont have video again.

If i change my video card to say a GTX 470 would my problems go away or could it be a compatability issue with my motherboard?

of course after i bought the sound card i found this thread.
