High guys, I recently got an 8800gtx and all has been fine for days, now I have just stuck in a new 1TB hard drive and now i think its the gfx but something is squeaking when powering off, i have read that there is a problem with 8800 cards and some psu's (im guessing it might be some kind of low power warning) now the problem is I have removed all Hard drives (and pretty much everything else) and the bugger still squeaks (basically it can only be the 8800gtx or psu) my PSU is a 535w enermax (a bit low for this card I know hoping to change that soon)

what do you guys reckon?
 
it runs absolutely fine, even in full 3d games no noise silent as a mouse, then hit shutdown, hard drives power down and just a second before it goes "completely off" it squeaks, I doubt its anything serious but its bloody annoying :D
 
yeah but what I want to know is why its doing it when I have removed all other components (well the ones I can anyway) it didnt do it until I plugged the new HDD in?
 
no, seagate, and ive unplugged ALL drives and dvd drive turn on PC, turn off pc, (beofre its even done anything) and squeak. :(
 
My gtx does this, apparently its because the power is stopped on the graphics card before the mobo has lost power so the graphics card detects no power and tells you about it :) Nothing wrong just annoying :p

but again why do this now and not when i first installed it? oh and haha guys!:p
