Hi, I needed to install a new power supply as recommended when I changed my
video card. It said the minimum requirement was 400W. I tried that and it
still would not work, so I got a 500W one ( the place I bought it at had
nothing in between ). Now early in the boot process I get a message saying
"Hardware monitor found an error. Enter Power Setup for details." When I go
to the Hardware Monitor in the bios there is a line that reads:
+12V Voltage and then 13.18V (which is flashing and red)
Then every once in awhile while booting the bios screen will pop up and say
something like CPU frequency at shutdown was wrong, the computer will now
boot in Safely, or something like that.
Is this going to damage the motherboard or CPU? It doesn't sound good.
It's an ASUS P4B266 mb. Thanks for any advice.
