Hi
I'm building my first computer and have gotten everything together, and have been able to boot up to windows, and install drivers etc so far. I am trying to install my new graphics card, but whenever i do and plug in the DVI cable, the display just shows up with "please power down and connect the pcie power cables" But i have both (2) 6+2 pin connectors connected to the card, and the PSU (corsair 750W) I have also tested the voltages, and it seems to be delivering power fine, but this message continues to show up. Some ideas/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
