    Video Card Causing Shutdown

    I recently installed a GEFORCE 5500 video card. I noticed that my computer is now randomly shutting down, and when I reboot, ithere is a messege saying that the GEFORCE is causing the shutdown. Does anyone know what the cause of this is resulting from? Quickly, my setup is: Via Epia M10000 mobo, 512 ram, usb audigy nx sound, wireless keyboard & mouse, 3.5" 120gig Maxtor, panasonic slimline cd/dvd with ide->usb connector, and usb hub. I'm powering with PW-70A and ITPS. The monitor, and usb sound is powered with an DC->AC inverter. Any help to solve this problem will be greatly appreciated!!

    holy freakin crap how is the thing even booting?

    You need more power, and ditch the ITPS since it limits you to 60 watts.
