Awhitewookie Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Okay so I upgraded my monitor and graphics card today. Put in a nvidia geforce gts450 and 23" acer monitor. I uninstalled the old graphics drivers (nvidia geforce 8400gt) and installed the new drivers for the 450. Turned up the graphics in Black Ops to 1920x1080, now after I load a server it immediately pulls of the message "Lost connection to host" with any server I go into. What is causing this? I know I didn't uninstall any network programs. Also, I still cannot connect to the servers if i turn down the graphics. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Rebel4055 Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 May not be a graphics issue, it may just be a separate problem. What power supply do you have also. Try updating your internet adapters drivers or reinstalling them. Quote Rest In Peace mother.

Socky Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Is your powersupply big enough to support that graphics card? Have you maybe unplugged something when you were changing it?

Awhitewookie Posted January 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 Hmmm interesting point with the power supply, because the graphics card requires 2 power plug ins. Never thought of that, Ouch only 330w. Probably my problem, time to go to frys and get a 600+ supply. Weird that I have never had a problem with this power supply, and I've run COD 1,2,4,5 - Starcraft 2 - and Warcraft with no problems. Oh and no i didn't unplug anything, good suggestion though Quote MY BUILD 1998 Ford Explorer 2dr sport 1/0 Big 3 1/0 everything Alpine cda-9884 Crescendo CZ components (2) Crescendo bc2000's (2) Jolt 150ah (2) Yellow top optimas (1) Juicebox black cherry addition (1) Mechman 270 avbm miss my bc5500 and (4) 15's You know why people are ass holes online but not in person?

Rebel4055 Posted January 16, 2011 Report Share Posted January 16, 2011 (edited) Yeah I would get a 550-650w PSU. Corsair,antec,cooler master,thermaltake are all good brands. If it is the onboard ethernet the powers supply may not be able to power everything correctly. Edited January 16, 2011 by Rebel4055 Quote Rest In Peace mother.

Rebel4055 Posted January 17, 2011 Report Share Posted January 17, 2011 Problem fixed. After bugging around with the internet card I uninstalled the graphics drivers and reinstalled fresh ones from the site. All's working great now. Quote Rest In Peace mother.
