Radeon 9800 burning out



I have an ATI AIW 9800 (with a TV tuner). It needs power from my PSU (Q-tec
450w).

Sometimes when I switch my computer on it starts beeping and telling me to
re connect the power to the Radeon. When I look at the plug, the end where
the red wire is has gone totally black and is burnt out. I've already ruined
the only two floppy style power connectors on my psu and now I've started
using molex convertors but I'm getting through those pretty quickly!

Anyone have an idea what might be causing this?
