Woooooo!!! Got the card working!!!!!! I unplugged everything and redid it and its a go! Now to see if I can get the new fan in... Thanks so much for all the input everybody

Fiddled around during intermission (and apparently then some since I missed a few goals...). I put in my old equipment, got everything moving... still no video. I hooked in the new card and the fan is working on that as if everything is a go, still no video though!

Not sure what MOBO, he was impressed with the one I had though I had no video what so ever, so no BIO.

I bought it online at newegg.com. Depending on how the game goes I will play around with it more tonight based off Canoli's thoughts. Might have to fiddle tomorrow since I'm already a few deep

I'm gonna head home after were done brewing this tasty treat and try resetting the cpu and hook up all my old gear to rule out the mother oard if it works. (Really hope I don't have to buy a new one)

Yea I plugged it in. The card worked at my buddies

I did not delete the drivers before I switched (saw I should have done that after the fact). Would that completely crap out the new card though? Also when putting the old back in it still wasn't working. I tried taking the battery thing out of my motherboard to reset my bios to see if that would help too but also nothing. I also tried to hook my tv directly into the computer using an HDMI cable instead of the other cable I was using to rule out the cable. (That sucked testing, stupid heavy tv) I'm out of ideas and have pretty much come to the conclusion that something is fried.

Using the same cables the same PCI Express slot (even tried a different slot to see if that one somehow went faulty). I determined it's not a power issue because my old card requires more juice and has a light to indicate if it is getting enough power, all systems were a go. I purchased the card on newegg.com, I'm hopefully going to my buddies tomorrow to brew some beer and will try swapping it on his machine to make sure it's not DoA. Here is my system; Motherboard: Gigabye GA-990FXA-UD3 - http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=667675 CPU: AMD FX-8150 3.6ghz (which apparently I bought the warranty for? woohoo!) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103960 CPU fan: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16835214024 Memory: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=6688692 Graphics: HIS IceQ Radeon 7850 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161405 - Old card was a GeForce GTX280 PSU: Coolermaster 750W Monitor: Samsung Syncmaster T220

So I built a new computer about 6 months ago, it was working fine. The fan on the CPU was really loud and I wanted to upgrade my graphics card as the other was from my old computer. I installed the new fan and the new card, and am no longer getting any video input to my monitor. I have determined it's not a power issue but my new card's fan will not even turn on. I kept it on for about 10 minutes and then turned it off. The card did get warmer so something is going on there. I put the old card back in to see if it was DoA and the old card will no longer work either. I've been working on possible solutions for about 4 hours now and am fed up with the damn thing. Any ideas out there?

I can't understand the few (thank goodness the minority) that are STILL blaming Bryz? Guy is 9th in the league in SV%, 8th in GAA, not spectacular but he has been solid and is also 4th in the league in shots against. The Flyers collectively have 14 GF and 20 GA for a -6 difference. This offense hasn't shown a lot of promise other than the beat down on a not so good Florida team.

Interesting. Will def provide a big body in front of the net for the dirty goals but not sure how well he can move now a days?

Blues probably jumped the gun with a head start. He might of wanted to get as far away from NY as possible as well. Signing with the Flyers would have meant 4 games between and then a potential early playoff matchup.

Maybe he can switch over to D? He had good speed, could protect the puck nicely, and has a solid defensive game. He just couldn't.... well score. Ever.

Well, Redden and Gomez both bought out. Good for the players since they will have a chance to actually play the game again. I wouldn't mind bringing Redden in as an invite and see how he does.

Tell you what, that slapper during practice tonight looked pretty damn amazing going in the upper 90 over Leights. I know it was just Leights but nobody was stopping that unless the goalie's head got in the way.

So the NHL is now allowing an "accelerated buyout" for teams like the Montreal Canadiens to buyout players like Scott Gomez. The result might benefit the player as they will not have to stay home all year with the team fearing risk of injury (and thus unable to buy them out at end of season). I personally think this is a load of crap. Heres the article on TSN.... http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=413602

I think you need to keep it with Pronger. It shows a sign of respect to the guy but also can be used to keep him on the LTIR (sure we expect him to come back) and not retire forcing his cap hit to apply.

No chance he makes it. He would have to absolutely blow the coaching staff away for him to make it, they aren't going to waste a year of his contact and RFA for him to play 2 minutes top a game on the 4th line.

I'm thrilled and ecstatic!!! That being said, I won't be attending any games/buying new jerseys/etc. for awhile. I'll be watching the game but I certainly will not be attending them for awhile.

Formation of a new league has begun.... In all seriousness I think this is a good idea, it will raise money for charity and keep the guys in tune with their skills. It would be great to be televised unfortunately Comcast would probably black it out just to make sure the fans couldn't watch any hockey until the lockout is over.

Does it really matter? I'm more worried about having a season!

So pretty much if you are somehow in the NHL and broke, go get a serious injury? Seems kind of off

I believe there was something in his contract along those lines, I remember last year when he was sent to the Phantoms everyone said how it will save cap space. The lockout will significantly help the salary cap though. No season = no payroll!

I for one, who love this sport above all other sports, will not watch or attend a single game of hockey in protest until Bettman is gone if a lockout does occur. His whole comment about the fans will return in the event of a lockout absolutely disgusted me and shows he really doesn't care about the fans or the growth of the sport. A lockout will kill this sport right as it was recovering and gaining casual fans back from the 1st lockout. The casual fan will not return this time in the event of a lockout.
