GTX 275 does not let my pc boot.

[ajaidevsingh]

I bought a Palit GTX 275 today and as soon as i replaced my single 4850 "Other one was taken by my brother" and hooked up the power wires and tried to switch on the pc the fans inside rotate just a bit and stop as if the smps has shut itself down to protect itself due to short circuit. I tried 4850 and it worked no problem at all.

So i think the GTX 275 has a internal short circuit and since i just bought it i do hope such things are mentioned in the warranty??

I say "Return it" and try another ~

reset your computer to all stock first. Then, try to boot with just one stick of ram. One time I bought a 3870 and had problems booting after install. I just assumed that it was the video card, but it turned out that it was one of my ram sticks.

Sounds like a power to the video card problem, but you say you hooked up the power to the card...
