I guess I was wondering what the specs were for your main PC which you said you upgraded. And, yes, that's the DXDIAG report!

I believe the Nvidia 7600GT has two DVI outputs. If you have the old VGA cables, you can get a VGA to DVI adapter such as this one at Newegg. Make sure the male and female ends correspond to your cables. VGA to DVI Adapter

It doesn't matter which one you use. There are two for people who use two monitors at once. This was a high end video card for it's time!

I just want to hear what game you throw at it first when you get it all set up! Gamers helping gamers - that's what it's all about. Life is good.

Draclvr,I just install the video card you sent me but wouldn't work. My power supply is only 250w I think that's why it wouldn't work. Tried to put this power supply in my old pc but the holes wouldn't line up, (raidmax rx-450k continuous 450 watts atx 12v v2.3/eps 12v power supply) It's the same size is the other one. I wonder if I should line up the holes and drill new ones. What do you think I should do. Thanks Richard

Draclvr,I just install the video card you sent me but wouldn't work. My power supply is only 250w I think that's why it wouldn't work. You may be right about that. The websites I looked at recommended 350W for a 7600GT. Tried to put this power supply in my old pc but the holes wouldn't line up, (raidmax rx-450k continuous 450 watts atx 12v v2.3/eps 12v power supply) It's the same size is the other one. I wonder if I should line up the holes and drill new ones. What do you think I should do. What was the computer model that you're putting this power supply in? We might want to check that it doesn't need proprietary connections.

I "think" I remember that this is an older HP computer??? If it is, can you tell us the model number? There are tons of replacement and power supply upgrades for HP computers.

I've done some searching and looking around and if this is one of the ultra slim computers, you may NOT be able to upgrade the power supply because it's very proprietary to this particular computer.

Oh, that's good to know. Are you sure that's the model of the computer? My searches for the D530 only came up with the same one Jenny posted. It's called a convertible mini-tower in my search results. There are letter after the model number that indicate which form factor they are. The D530s is the small form factor; the D530c is the convertible mini-tower and the D530u is the ultra slim tower.

D530 cmt. I found some other letters hard to tell if that's a o or a c. CMT or a OMT. I think it's a CMT.

Thanks Draclvr and Jenny,will keep searching. It's not a minitower Convertible, it's a full size computer. Strange. I did a search at HP for the serial number you gave. I would have thought their serial numbers would be unique, even if their model numbers aren't.
