My System

Re: seagate barracude problem

This seems to probably be a PSU problem. With a new graphics card, sound card and hard drive installed now it is probably drawing more power then the PSU can put out.

What you should do is list your system specs (what graphics card, video card, PSU, etc, how many cd rom drives) just anything that takes power from the PSU and someone else can help determine if your PSU is good enough or if not then they can help find one that is.

If you bought this computer from a store (like its a dell, hp, sony, etc.) and it as on board graphics and video then you should disconect everything you added till you know you have a PSU that can handle it otherwise you risk damaging something. Most computers can only support what they came with.
