Hi, recently I purchased the above mentioned card. Ever since whenever I play Oblivion, the pc will crash either to desktop or will restart by itself.

It does not happen with my old card which was Geforce 5600. I would like to ask if the above mentioned card need to be connected to my power supply. I think that could be the problem but I could not find the source to connect to the power supply if any. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and regards.

Hi, just to add that I have updated the latest drivers. Thanks.

i have the same card mate and it does not need to connect to power supply as it's powered thru motherboard. go to here Guru3D.com Forums - Powered by vBulletin and register and ask in there

that means, all i have to do is plug it in into my expansion card slot and thats all right?

My 7600 was from Gigibyte and was passively cooled (no fan) just heat sinks and they came loose after 3 weeks. I requested a return from them and had a new one in 6 days.

Problem gets worse. I left my PC running last night before I go to sleep and when I woke up this morning and switched on my monitor, a message appear saying 'Check input signal'. I switched off my PC and 3 hours later when I switched it on again, the same message appears!

sounds like you need to replace
