I have just tried to build my first pc but i have come up with a problem when i turned it on i get the message "you have not connected one of your video card power connectors to the power supply" the question is how many power supplies do i connect i am using a arianet 850w supply but only 1 of the 6 block connectors fits into the graphics card the other block connector is a different fitting. Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks
 
Either the above, or it's got 2 power connectors, and you've only connected one. Try unplugging the cable and plugging it back in again or using a molex->pci-e connector as well, as it could be the connector is dead if you werent using it previously, as it is, sounds like the power connector for the graphics card isnt enough/working properly.
 
I have tested the voltage and both of the 6 block connectors are running at 12v the card have 2 slots for the connectors but only 1 fits i will try and get a pic sorted for yous
