Well this is not going to happen, at least not this time 😉 I've just tested the rig with the other PSU and yep.. didn't help.

Any other ideas, anyone?

Is your rig hooked up to a grounded power outlet?

Yes.

Damn...sorry but I'm kinda out of ideas here 🙁

Have you tried setting your BIOS to default/fail-safe settings??

You could try a different wall outlet, but I'm doubtful that will make any difference 🙁

Wait, have you cleaned the contacts of your graphics cards before using them? You can clean them with a paper cloth and some rubbing alcohol, you wouldn't believe the filth that sometimes is on those contacts even though they "might" look perfectly clean.

If that doesn't help, perhaps test a PCI graphics card?

Whats missing in your collections?

I've tried with Load Fail/Save values and didn't help. AGP Slot on the boards and connectors on the cards are clean, so I would exclude them. And at the moment I have no nvidia PCI cards, so can't test them. Something tells me I'll have to stick with my Voodoo 5500 for now 😉
