Just picked up this video card with the expectation that I would be gaming like a rock star in minutes. So far, I have been unable to boot my system using only this card. The 3870 hardware is installed in the Primary PCI slot with my 8500 gt in the secondary. I can boot up normally if the 8500 is installed, but when I remove it and try to operate on only the 3870, I get a Video Card error beep code. Any ideas? I've been messing with the bios, installing an insane amount of drivers and updates and have had NO luck.
Thanks a ton for any help you may be able to offer!
