New graphics card problem?
i just installed a asus nvidia engt 220 graphics card like 2 weeks ago then it started to make my computer crash. Its withthe low profile bracket since i have a dell inspiron slim slim series and i have 500 watt pwr supp and dual core so idk why. My old graphics ran from a g41 chiset idont think i disabled it idk. But it crashes when i play or just on my desktop. The screen does a quick flash of a blue screen that had stuff on it that i couldnt read then restarts my computer and says if i want to run insafe or normal mode. Anyway to fix this or do i have to trade it back for a new1???? Please help me quick!!!

It sounds like the card could be not installed in the Slot properly.
Try removing it (with the Power OFF) and reinstalling the Card then testing it.
Also, it could be a Video Mode Issue.
Try going to Safe Mode and starting with Lower Res Modes (Ex=640x480).
Else switching to the old card then changing to Low Res Mode then switching to new Card (while Power OFF of course).
Could be that the Card is Damaged or Incompatible.
