Hello guys, im fairly new to installing new graphic cards and to computer hardware in general so i hope you can help me out.
My computer is a compaq Sr5000 with windows vista basic 32 bit
New videocard is ATI RADEON HD 3850
I bought a new videocard since the one integrated in my computer is only 32MB and it does not cut it anymore when i try to render videogame graphics. So now i bought a dvi cable, pluged it and when i turn on my computer i get this meesage in my monitor that tells my i need to plug in a power cable into my video card. But my videocard doesnt appear to have a a slot in which to put the cables in. The fan on the videocard seems to be working accordingly, so i have no idea of whats going on.
Any help or advice is welcomed and very appreciated. Thank you.
