*solved* nvidia 8600GTS, xorg, and no extra power connected to card.

I just bought a 8600gts and found out I do not have a pci-e power connector on my PSU. I have an adapter being shipped. My question is, X will not run w/o giving me errors about the secondary power not being connected. Thing is, this card runs just as it should under Vista w/o the extra power. Is it possible to get X to start by telling it to ignore the error? And if so, how?

Thanks! I will give it a try. It's only a temp fix until the power adapter comes in:)

Edit:
Your solution worked, thanks again.
