fx5900

I wrote several items here about the fx 5900 system sentinel messages about
the low power issue.

I have already replaced the power supply with the tagan 480 who has even a
special connector for the vga card (blue plug)

Sometimes i would receive messages during booting up and ones while i was
downloading something.

What i noticed about the card was the first time i plugged the power plug to
the card, i mean i didn't sat sturdy and i had my thoughts about it.

This morning the messages returned during booting up and i took the card out
and with a little screwdriver i make the connections from the molex
connector a bit broader and now everything is fine;i think of the poor
connection the power was fluctiating(speako no english) while booting up.

Anyway my card is from club3d, so if you have these troubles have a look at
the molex connector on the card if the plug isn't loosy because mine you
could remove easily!!!

I wonder if you guys and girls have had the same problems please let me
know, write it down in this forum.Because i wonder if this is the part of
the fault what people experiencing.

Yeah, actually, the differences in molex power plugs is kind of a
standing issue with not just the vid card connector but also drives.
Like the little Y splitter cables. Folks installing stuff should
always pay close attention to each connection. And now some cards need
to have TWO seperate molex connectors.
