Maybe you need a bigger (more watts) power supply.

Kennyj, the Nvidia GF4 Ti4200 128MB card with external TV tuner box & Tivo-like capability is now available from www.comprousa.com. I already have the GF2-MX400 64MB Personal Cinema (earlier version) in one of my BP6 systems. They are using the same TV tuner breakout box with the new GF4 cards & I can upgrade the video to GF4, using the same TV tuner box. Without the TV tuner box, this new GF4 vid card with TV interface chip & connector is going for $189. So, I imagine that the combo will sell for ~$250. I got my Personal Cinema GF2 combo for $99 about 8 mos. ago. It's down to $89 now.
