This is all it does.
If I take out the video card the computer starts up...

I realise this may have been answered elsewhere but I'm having issues finding an answer that anyone can agree on. I built my machine a few months ago and noticed that one of my external hard drives had a fluctuating transfer speed (going up to 30-40MB/s then dropping to 0 for 30-60secs then...
