4870 issues....

[shinester184]

Just re-assembled my rig (below) and now, upon start, the fans run full blast, no POST and three red LEDs on the 4870.

I seem to remember this being a common issue?

Can somebody please help in any way?

Cheers!

Cheers,

I have narrowed it down to it being a PSU issue, as still no post even with another graphics card.

WIl go and give all connections a run through.

All connections are perfect, and still the problem persists...

Any more ideas???

On my GPU, the 3 lights that display are...

D1601
D1602
D1603

Do these all point to one problem?

The PCI-e (2x3pin) connectors are tightly fitted in the GPU.

It may also interest you that I tried a different GPU in my PC (which I know is completely fine because I'm using it now!) and still I get no POST!
