Not normally no.

Hardware Failure means just that....something somewhere is either getting too hot, not enough power, not seated correctly, plugged in wrong, or just old and crusty like me.

Like I said, without further info on the cause its impossible to track down which of those it would be.

Its very common that this error occurs after installation of new hardware in an old machine.....it could simply be dust inbetween contacts or new contacts in an old dusty slot.......and it only takes one contact to bring the whole ship to a grinding halt.

More info required to be absolutely sure.

Just for the record my latest build uses a new GFX 780 card and all my old versions of PS run fine with it.

The only difference is that all my stuff was new out of the box, so clean as a whistle.

Regards.
