I'd lash it in Abe.  Jim's worked fine on his 250w psu.  If you have more than one cd/dvd drive then disconnect one of them.  Also you need to connect the gfx card to the psu by way of a molex connector.

If your having troubs then someone on IRC will help.

Get the latest drivers for the card from nVidia ABE.  If you're still having problems, un-install those newest drivers and install the 2nd newest set available, if you get me.

If that fails wait for your new power supply and keep your fingers crossed

Abe use this to remove all drivers, ie old fX5200 drivers.  Then download the latest drivers.  Try those.   If they dont work then try an older driver till you get a stable set.
