following what ct161 said that you have to update the driver press on the power button and as soon as it lights up start hiting f12 rapidly. now click on run safe mode with networking. your computer will start. know uninstall your graphics drivers only. now it might ask you to restart so restart and go into safe mode again with networking. open your browser and download and install the drivers then restart your computer and make it start up in normal mode. see if that works. if it doesn't you will have to get a new psu like what ct161 said.

it's a TFX power supply, the spec for slim line cases

i still dont think thats going to work thats only 300 watts on newegg it said that it needs an minimum of 400 watts.

 

[dycegamez]

What would be a good power supply wattage to get then?

 

[theking946]

What would be a good power supply wattage to get then?

400 to around 600 watts that would be excellent. i really dont know any power supplies with 400 to 600 watts that are slim and can fit in the computer.

 

[theking946]

if you find any power supplies that are slim and high in watts please tell me.

 

[dycegamez]

Oh the 300 watt isnt gonna work?

 

[theking946]

Oh the 300 watt isnt gonna work?

probably not it saids the minimum is 400.

 

[dycegamez]

Oh ok damn not sure what power supply to use

i really dont know of any slim power supplies. i guess youll have to move wvery part into a new and bigger computer case to make room for a big power supplie instead.

 

[theking946]

you do not need a 400w unless it's a cheap 400w unit like the cheap 220w enachine unit. that seasonic unit has 21a on its12v rail. the emachine probably has 12a (if lucky). the 12v rail powers most of a modern PC including the CPU, GPU and HDD. so that seasonic is basically twice the power of the emachine for a modern PSU. learn facts about hardware before just posting an opinion (especially when its incorrect)

We cant just guess we need real information so we dont waste anymore money for nothing. I'll start searching right know.

Ya I'm not that great with the power supply's . And this is the first time with a pc this small and crappy , I'm trying to get it to work for my friend . So this one would be fine to use? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817151090&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-RSSDailyDeals-_-na-_-na&AID=10521304&PID=4176827&SID=lx6b3qcq7ag

I really don't know I could be wright I could be wrong maybe it will fit maybe it will not if you want to experiment buy and try to see if it fits like what ct1615 said

Hi ct1516 , you seem to know a lot more then I do , so would that power supply work for me ? Thanks a million

 

[dycegamez]

Ok so what power supply would you guys recommend for me to put in this machine ? Thank you

ct1615 sounds really confident that this will work. ct1615 also recommended this power supply .

if you decide to buy it, tell me if it works.

i linked the seasonic PSU above. it's a TFX unit (standard for slim line cases) you also did not answer my questions.

without the video card, the PC boots up just fine? with the video card, the PC freezes on boot up?

i came to this post because i have the same problem. can you find me a graphics card that will run games like crysis 2 battle field 3 mw3 and at the same time uses watts less then the ati radeon 5570. also provide links if possible. Thank You.

 

[dycegamez]

Yes system boots up fine with out video card then when I put the video card it it freezes up on start up

 

[theking946]

i won't waste your time. it's not going to happen as those games are too demanding and a card less powerful would mean the AMD 6450, hardly a gaming card for modern games. even if you got the games to launch, they would just be a slide show.

BF3 requires at least an ATI 3870
crysis 2 requires at least an ATI 3850

ct1615 please reply as fast as fast as you can. i know the radeon 4350 is not that good for gaming but will it work on a 220 watt psu.
the links are right here and i dont want to spend a lot of money so which one should i buy the refurbished or the new.

New- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127613

will these cards work on a 220 watt psu

i have a 220 watt psu like you do and that is extremly small. if you want that to work youll have to buy the power supply that me and ct1615 stated in our messages.

can you please respond to my messages. will the radeon 4350 work on a 220 watt psu. many people on the internet said yes. is that true that the radeon 4350 works on 220 watt psu.

 

[theking946]

ct1615, Yes system boots up fine with out video card then when I put the video card it it freezes up on start up

i also do not guarantee that this will work i am just following what ct1615 saids. he sounds really confident and you should try it out.

 

[dycegamez]

Ok I just wanna make sure with that pc and the ati 5570 video card that the 300 watt power supply will work , it's not my Pc but it is my money I don't wanna throw away 50. On a maybe.
