I'm not sure the manual helps, it doesn't seem to say you need the additional power (makes no mention of it at all), but the specs of the card could come in useful for the diagnostic process.</span><br><span></span><br><span>Ad</span><br><span></span><br><span>-- </span><br><span>Wolves LUG mailing list</span><br><span>Homepage: http://www.wolveslug.org.uk/</span><br><span>Mailing list: Wolves@mailman.lug.org.uk</span><br><span>Mailing list home: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/wolves</span></div></blockquote></div></body></html>
