What you would need would depend a lot on what kind of video card you have. -- C

If you'll open the case and look at the power supply you'll find the wattage of the current one written on it. -- dadiOH ____________________________ dadiOH's dandies v3.06... ....a help file of info about MP3s, recording from LP/cassette and tips & tricks on this and that.

Desktop Power Supply Units are so simply connected and so cheap that a specialist computer shop can test yours on the counter and, if needed, supply a new one without installation charge. Laptops however are more complicated. -- Don Phillipson Carlsbad Springs (Ottawa, Canada)

First question is why? You have no idea what you have now but you feel you need a new one for what reason? -- -- "JohnSmith1" <JohnSmith1(a)discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:C34A32AE-DD1C-4C3A-A7A5-2860EB01AC2D(a)microsoft.com... > Hi, > > I would like to change my power supply but don't know what to get.
