Did you hook up the power supply cable to the card? If so, what brand an "size" is the power supply?

What says it's not getting enough power? I took a looksie at one 6800 GS PCI-E on Newegg, and I see a 6 pin PCI-E power connector that needs to be plugged in. Hopefully you've got the proper power supply that has a PCI-E connector on it.
