Hello,
I have an old rig for my cosin. I installed a new PSU but to my surprise there was no 3 prong cable to plug into the motherboard near the AGP slot to give it power like the old PSU had. so now the videocard wont work.
I baught a new videocard it has a 4 prong power port on it for power from a PSU like the HDD's have and what not... Will the new one work since its power is dirrectly on the videocard? or will the Motherboard need power for the AGP slot to work as well?
Thank you for any Advice I may recieve.
Oh and the pc runs just fine all fans run etc.. just no display and that i think was the problem. Still waiting on the new video card to be shipped from newegg.com
