[QUOTE="SwissBuster, post: 1163623, member: 78168"] Figured this out when I got back home, with some technical help from Digital Devices. It turns out there is a small power cable directly on the card which is soldered on the card very close to the PCIe slot. When mounting the card in my PC, the cable/solder was pushed again the plastic of the PCIe connector, and this dislodged it - so no power to the card. A quick bit of soldering and careful remounting (so the repair wasn't immediately broken) and I have a fully functioning card again. Thanks, MM, for keeping me focussed on logical remedies... I could otherwise quite easily have gone down the new motherboard route! [/QUOTE]
