Hello I am having a problem with these cards. I bought a 7900gt an upgrade from my radeon 9200(agp) i have a asrock dual vsta board if your wondering. So i followed the video card faq above and did that. Now i uninstalled the radeon and when i try to go on xp i get a bsod error. So i went in safe mode and installed the 7900gt and restarted back to xp same error. Uninstalled it did it again didnt work... So i have vista oin the other hard drive and didnt have the 9200 installed on it and installed the 7900gt on it thats what im using now.
MY specs are:
asrock dual 775-vsta
C2D e6300
1gb ddr ram
7900gt
540 watt enermax ps
1 250gb hd 1 160 gb hard drive.


Any help is appreciated

ok so i just formateed and reinstalled xp. It works great with the card on the question mark thing on device manager, but ounce its installed i get problems. When i change the resolution or color wuality it goes to a black screen and my monitor goes on standby after. When i install the nvidia drivers it gets worst, the compter is really slow it refreshes itself slower than now and it just randomly turns off.
PS: now the vista is not on my boot list so its hard to work so can someone plz help
Thanks
 
can it be a overheating or power supply problem. o and my screen is weird. when i scroll in internet it goes really slow like a picture at a time.
 
Is it the ASUS EN7900GT/2DHT/256M That's the only 7900Gt on the compatibility list.
 
no its an xfx but i know other people on different forums running the same card so that shouldn't be the issue. O i installed the drivers finally but theirs a new problem my windows stays on for like 10 min then freezes then the screen turns of i can only move the mouse then it eventually restarts.
