I have a little problem... Or a Big problem... Not sure yet...
Anyways, So today i go out, buy a new video card (Sapphire Atlantis 9600 Pro) Install it, and play games for about 6 hours. Then i just surf the net and listen to music for about an hour and a half, then realize i have S-Video Out, and decide to go play games on the TV.
So I hook the computer up to the TV, boot it up, play games for about an hour, shut down, move computer back to desk, hook it up, and turn the power on.
Heres where the problem starts. It goes to the winXP logo where it just scrolls, then after about 20 seconds or so, all the lights on my keyboard flash, and my speakers make a "popping" noise, like everything normally would happen, but its alot later than it normally would happen. about 10 seconds after than, the comp just reboots, after it reboots, it takes me to the boot screen, with the safemode, safemode with networking etc... screen, and no matter what i pick it just repeats the process.
Any Ideas? It's not overheating(Its clean, and the BIOS doesn't show temps past 40C, and the Video card is seated right.)
Specs are in sig. (minus 9600 Pro.)
Cliff notes for lazy people: Got new video card, used it for about 7 1/2 hours fine, hooked comp. up to TV with new video card, play games for about an hour. Take comp back to desk, hook up, power up, winXP refuses to boot.
Thanks in Advance!
