I have 2 optical drives (CD/RW and DVD/RW) and 2 hard drives (40mb and 160mb) I also have a 3.5" multi-card reader.

Does the 6600GT video card you've got also require it's own power plug?
|
Yes it does - that stumped me as I'd used up all my power cables on the optical and hard drives. I've had to piggy-back one of the hard drive power leads to power the new card.

Also, to rule out driver issues, what video card was the old one you upgraded from? If it wasn't a Nvidia card, did you remove the old drivers completely?

Old card was an Nvidia geforce MX440
Thanks for your comments - I'll try that link and see what it comes up with
