Be sure to wipe your comp clean from all previous drivers. Most problems I\'ve heard about can be lead back to old drivers.

Anyhoo, congrats you now have something that I want you lucky sob!!!

:D

Since you told us you bought it you\'re gonna have to give us impressions on the card.  It\'s like an unwritten rule of these forums.

it is installed! I am DL 3dMArk2001SE, I have a 250 Watt power suplly after all...it works fine anyways (thre are 2 power connections (one to the Power supply and one to the Harddrive).  I will give you guys my benchmrks when i get it DL and run 3dmark...it looks good so far. I only have a 4x agp Port tho...oh well it beats 2X...I should be able to report my benchmarks in about 10-15 mins.
