Even Retail Goes Bad

A couple of days ago I upgraded my old server from its measly PIII 1.0GHz w/ Flex-ATX mobo to a brand spanking new AMD Athlon 64 1.8GHz w/ MSI K8T-Neo mobo. Since my new MSI motherboard didn't have integrated video I threw my Opteron box's video card into the new server and bought a nice new cheap (but better than the card I just removed) PCI 128MB ATI card for my Opteron box. Unfortunately the card appears to be DOA and crashes the computer literally two seconds after every boot. Hopefully I'll be exchanging this card at CompUSA tomorrow and my Opteron box will be up and running soon.
