dude.. could be your power.. not enough to support.. but i dont have that info.. check it out an post back .. i kinda want to know

 

TX650W is what the power supply says.

 

did u switch the bios around to operate off of the card in question

 

Yup, moved the monitor cable to the video card and all that.

 

if u get no help i will be checkn more on this.. wierd.

 

If i'm not mistake, that would be a downgrade.
Does your 9800gtx's fan spin when you turn your computer on? There shouldn't be a compatibility problem.

 

Have you attached the 6 Pin connector to the GPU?

 

Yup, it spins.

 

Yes, yes I have. (I'm sure it doesn't matter, but the connector was 3 pins that went into GPU and the other three were holes[I bought the connector off newegg because I lost the one they gave to me..])

 

?
Not only do you need to actually plug in the card (no joke), but the 6-pin should be attached to your powersupply...you can't have lost it. Even if it fell off, you should have a few others.

 

Power Supply does not contain one that could be connected to the Video Card, so I got an adapter and ta-da. I think we are on different pages here...

 

I don't care about the video card I have now, that is a lost cause, probably going to sell it on Craigs List. I know the video cards I suggested are a downgrade from the one I already have but anything is better than the one installed into the motherboard. Someone just tell me if either of them are compatible with my CPU so I can go to the store right now and buy it (I have a project to do for school tomorrow and my graphics card needs to be upgraded for it [System Requirements for the project can be found here: http://alice.org/index.php?page=downloads/download_alice2.2).

 

Everything with a PCI-E slot is compatible, but you know, they don't work unless you plug them in.
I suppose your right, the older 9800gtx's need two 6pins, which the corsair TX650 does have.
Though you linked to a 9800gtx+, which only takes one 6pin.

 

The fan works so either it is getting its power from a magical place in fairy tale land or I have them plugged in, right? Anyway, thanks, I guess; I sure do hope this next one works, it would be such a pain to waste 300+ dollars for nothing :/.
