Nvidia 6600GT and ATSC HD help (1 Viewer)

Definately corrupted video.

HD is only supported properly in later Nvidia drivers.

Might be worthwhile running driver cleaner, and then installing 93.71 drivers.

Thanks, the drive cleaner is perfect too. I'm sure I have junk laying all over. I'll try to install some more drivers and see if any help.

Thanks PD.

Hmmm.. Well I found out that Amps are more inportant then Watts in my case. I think the premise behind having a larger psu is partially the added amperage.

My stock PSU is 300watts and 12amps on the red 12v. I found another 300watt psu with 20amps on the red 12v. That improved quality tremendously. I'm obviously dealing with a PSU issue as stated.

If I use RivaTuner and turn down the card fans to 85% everything runs great with the stock PSU in the case. I'll let it burn in and see if there ends up not being enough cooling. Hopefully this works.

As stated I'm using Silverstone Tek LC11 low profile case. It's got a narrow, and long PSU and I'm not seeting another 400+psu available for it.

I'm thinking about buying a 400 watt and taking it out of it's case and seeing if I can retro fit it into my case. I'm up for anything here.

Good luck on that one

Think it's possible?

Depends on the size of the board that the components are mounted on.

Really would be worthwhile looking for a compact power supply that meets the needs of your HTPC.

they do exist its just that they are few and more expensive.

Like most power units, you do need the true power capabilities, for more info for anyone, this is a great website.

Well call me crazy but I did it. I bought a 430W Thermaltake Tr2 today and tested it. Everything ran PERFECTLY with this powersupply. Thanks for the help. As you know this PSU won't fit in my case.. That was until I took it apart and installed it "into" my case. I'll snap some pics and reply with them.. It came out not to bad is you ask me....
