Hello,
For the past few weeks, when I tried to play games on my computer the computer would shut down on me. Ive been using the same video card since i got my compiter 2 years ago. Then eventually, it now just wont start. I tried taking out the video card and using the on board one and works fine. I think it might be the power supply but Ive read alot on this site thats its not. When ever I try to put my vid card back in the computer just wont turn on. Can someone help me out? starting to get annoyed by this :(

Thank you in advanced

Configuration: Windows XP Internet Explorer 7.0
