  6. Yes that is correct. I need to hook up to PS line for fan on card. I do have extra PS lines from HD, CD, CD Burner. Does it make a difference which one I hook up the card to?

I have the card installed and hooked it to the CD connector (PS line) to the card. sethook, you talking about the white 4 pin connector? If so that is what is connected. So far so good. The only reason I asked is I read some

  8. I'm getting ready to install new video card "Asus N6600 128mb VGA" I just upgraded power supply (PC Power & Supply) from 200w to 360w, so know that works........so far. I know how to install it. My question is, which connector do I hook it up to? 1. Hard Drive 2. CD Rom 3. CD Burner The instructions just say, basically hook it up to whatever one has an extra connector. Since I put the upgraded PS in, I have 3 extra connectors, all same color wiring. (yellow, 2 black, red) I have read some say do not use HD, use CD etc, others say use HD. Very confusing. Does it matter? Thanks in advance fo

  19. Never mind getting sued, today there is a possibility of them shooting you. We are a sue happy society. So sad. There are some real wacko's out there. I remember when I was a kid, I could walk the street any hour of the day or night time, and no one would bother you. Sometimes didn't even lock the door to the house. Now, some people not only lock, but dead bolt it. Others may even get an alarm system. Barb
  20. Congratulations Matt Barb
