I just bought a Radeon HD 4850. I am upgrading from a 8600GTS. I have been running a 480watt power supply. After installing the card and drivers I recognized there was no sound. I installed the sound drivers again and got fan warning that it was not working and then we removed the side panel and that resolved the fan issues but shortly after we got the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH!!!
We removed the drivers and card and replaced it with the old card and drivers computer works fine. We think its a power issue. The new card says on the box that it only requires a 450watt, but in the manual it says 750watt. Do you think its a power supply problem? The card works fine with out the sound and sound drivers, when we installed then thats when everything went funky!
-Thanks in advance for any help!
