Hi there, wanted to ask here first before I made any other decisions.
I recently purchased a custom computer with a ASRock N68-S UCC motherboard and for whatever reason my new PNY Nvidia 8800GT graphics card isn't being recognized by the computer or by the cd supplied by it or eveng showing up in the device manager. The Card runs fine I can hear the fan and I connected the 6pin connector to the power supply. I just wanted to make sure that this card is compatible with the motherboard because I've tried a lot of things to try to fix it all which failed like installing the drivers from the nvidia website, updating the bios, enabling pci-e as the primary graphics adapter, and disabling the onboard graphics card.
I asked another forum and they're pretty sure that my weak Logisys ps480d 480W 20/24 is the problem in that it it's took weak to run the card.
Before going out and buying a new power supply I want to make sure with you guys that this graphics card IS compatible with the mother board and the most likely reason that the computer can't recognize the graphics card is because of the power supply. Thanks in advance.
I have Windows Xp sp3 32bit
