I just got my gto2. UPS left it on my front steps and there was a nice shoe print on the box.

I open the box and everything seemed fine.

After installing the card I get on my mobo Asrock SATA II. I set the vga to pci-e and reboot. Computer just beeps. Clear bio ext

Boot into windows and

Code:

This device cannot start. (Code 10)

Click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooter for this device.

I check the Secondary (on the gto2) and it say.

Code:

This device is working properly.

If you are having problems with this device, click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooter.

Am I doing something wrong or should I rma it?

Did you plug the power wire to the card. It sounds like you did not plug that in. The X800GTO2 require additional power like the X850XT PE.

Click to expand...

Ok I see where that is. The problem is theres no adapter with the card. Does anyone know if they can be picked up at a radio shack or something, maybe even rigged up

I don't know of any adapter. If your PSU does not have this, it may be time for you to upgrade your PSU. What PSU do you have?
