Hey guys, first time poster, thought this would be a great community to help me with a problem I am currently experiencing.
So here's my issue: I bought a ATI Radeon X 1950 Pro 256MB, PCI-Express graphics card recently, installed it, got it up and running, and everything went well for about the first day or so. Since yesterday, my computer has begun crashing with what appears to be, clearly, a graphics card issue. Basically what happens is the screen will just go all wonky, and the system will shut down.
I first thought it might be a power supply issue, but I doubt it. The card is supposed to need 450W and I'm running 480W, plus, the card doesn't seem to be overheating in any shape way or form, or the power supply.
After having talked to the customer support guy, I've basically decided it's a chipset driver issue. Problem is, I have no idea how to set up the drivers. Fortunatley, I was able to find all the relevant information pertaining to my system online: my system.
Basically, I'm just ot sure where exactly to go for these drivers and how to og about installing them. I would really appreciate the help. It seems like this is a basic issue, but I rarely deal much with hardware so as said, any help would be...a great help to me!
Thanks.
EDIT: Would this be, in keeping with the information that I have provided above, what I need to install?
