dling Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 man last nite i was messing around with some of my power cords tring to find one that was hot to give power to some of the cooling fans . i found one it had no power on it so i put power on to find out what was not being powered up come to find out it was one of the power connecters for my vid card. i did'ent think it would give a display w/o both connecters powered up. well i was wrong. buy putting power on it while the system was running i killed my card. can u say RMA. i know, i know turn it off before messing with power. live and learn.

TRex Posted December 5, 2005 Posted December 5, 2005 (edited) I could be wrong but I dont think warranty covers power issues. Very sorry to hear that Edited December 5, 2005 by TRex Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
