Need power supply min. requirement for rad.7500
Hello all,
I need the minimum requirement for the ati radeon 7500 (QW model, i.e. the small one i think, not a mobile one) on AGP. It's to try to fix a problem in a computer i cannot locate but wich seems to have appeared right after the plug-ins of that card (on an old Abit BX6 mobo). I know that "somewhere" in the depth of the cave of the ati site there is such information but i've been unable to find it since friday ! Is someone from here can help me out ? The current P.S. is 250w (ATX of course). |

Best to have a PS at least 400W or above, with 2 (Dual) or 3 fans.

A Radeon 7500 is about 6 generations old and by modern standards has minuscule power consumption. A decent 250 watt power supply should be plenty for it unless there's something the OP is not telling us. "glu" wrote in message ...

USB mouse. PS2 keyboard. Celeron400. All 4 ram bank are used up (327MB)... And it works perfectly with an old UTNT2 but when i plug in the radeon 7500 it goes on reboot after reboot by itself, sometimes after several seconds, sometimes it doesnt't even bypass the complete bios check. |

Sounds more like a faulty R7500 card then a PSU problem.

I would then doubt that 250W ratting. Get an Antec 300W and you will be fine. |

I think that ATI may not list the PSU requirements because they don't amount
to much. According to: http://www.jscustompcs.com/power_supply/ the card needs less than 30W. Assuming that all the hardware is actually working, all that I can suggest is to make sure that all of the nVidia driver components are gone before you install the Radeon. Driver Cleaner (http://www.drivercleaner.net/ ) might help. Address scrambled. Replace nkbob with bobkn. "glu" wrote in message ... Le Tue, 21 Mar 2006 13:01:04 -0500, J.

There is a good chance you bumped a ram card while installing the video card. My bh6 is touchy that way and the fix is to reinstall the ram. I suggest before you change any hardware that you remove the ram and then reinstall one stick. If it works, reinstall the rest of the ram. |
