What did you use for a power supply? If it didn't work out of the box with Rpi then where did you find the drivers?

I just used an old router power cable. About the drivers, I still haven't gotten them to work. In order to use them with RasPi, you have to re-build the kernel. They don't tell you that in any of the info.If you do buy it though, could you please email me a copy of the Linux drivers from the disk?

it can run from as low as 5v (at least 1amp but 1.5amp is better). 9v works fine. 12v is what is listed but since it works at 5v, 12v seems a bit too high to me (extra volts are burned off as heat; never a good idea). I suggest using a good strong 5v dc psu.

You use one of the power connectors on your power supply. that should be noted in the installation sheet

Thought of something else. Make sure your power adapter is set to the correct polarity + -, mine is set at +

Try disconnecting power supply and reconnecting. if that does not work, I would return as defective due to internal circuitry failure

So I think I am miss understanding. You are having a Graphics Card Issue. Would you like the Bios from the Graphics card? can you please explain a little more in depth exactly what you are trying to do?

No idea if they have Linux driver. I tried 2 units - neither worked, units just powered off :(

1) did you make sure the heat sink was applied properly? what kind of temps are you getting @ bios when you reboot. 2) power supply: how old? what kind of wattage? 3) Have you tried doing any other intensive tasks like gaming or running a test app like SuperPi? Does it shut down then?

we never got it running= the power supply kept beeping... I thought we had an issue with the onboard graphics and trying to disable it. we bought a new 550 watt cooler master power supply- the card has its own power connector (in addition to anything it may draw from the bus), most all current supplies will have the proper cord included. So all in all, this HP would not work with the card and a new supply yet it still did not work. This was an HP and they have proprietary BIOS.... We could not really defeat it. We gave up doing this with the HP, bought an ASUS motherboard and an unlocked AMD 8 core CPU, built a rig with spare parts and the coolermaster power supply, and it all rocked just fine. we never got it running= the power supply kept beeping...

I was able to just plug mine in and it worked fine. Drivers installed and then I was able to use it no problem.

The item is shipped without a power supply or any info regarding power supply requirements. I would have returned the one I bought, but, due to circumstances, I did not try to install the unit before the return period had expired. Sorry I can't be of more help, but I am stuck too.

I didn't. I just plugged and it worked. I think this is the way newer operating systems work. I remember older OS you had to download the latest drivers to get it to work.

You need to use a power adapter. Several of the ports no longer function (side note).

I just confirmed that the Plugable USB 2.0.4 will power an RPi unit directly. The RPi only draws 5W, so it's safe.

look for the wattage & get a adapter - Some of my friends bought adapter from Frys & works fine.

Depending on what else you have, and if you over clocking your CPU or the GPU it won't work. 750W is your best bet. I'm stuck in the same boat as you cause I'm trying to buy two but it won't work but I'm not trying to buy another PS

I gave it to my computer guy. But I remember him saying I needed a new power supply to run it. Sorry I wasn't more help.
