Over land and sea.
I keep getting a Nvidia sentinel warning when I boot into windows about my 7800gs Bliss 512mb AGP card not having enough power & it will run at lower settings to prevent damage. All cables are connectly properly & I have tried 2 psu's (530w & 600w) it happens with both. It happens with any version of Forceware drivers I use too & the temp. never goes above 50c. BIOS version on my card is 5.70.02.13.GP.
I've emailed support about this but wondered if anyone had any ideas whilst I wait for a reply.
Cheers:)

New tagan on the way for me.
I picked up one of those on the way home today (530w) hoping that would sort it out but it didn't:(
On further testing it happens when the system has been running for a while, but it's doesn't seem temperature related as that never seems to go up :confused:
