Id check the cables and stuff as well, make sure everything is in and you didnt leave one slightly loose and its ended coming out |
The old graphics card was intergrated with the mobo, so can't really "put it back in" lol. There's no way I could even get that one working again since I can't turn the comp on to get into the bios to disable the AGP slot and re-enable the intergrated graphics.
I just pulled out the PSU and it had an odd smell about it - kind of like licuorice. I've a sneaky suspicion that the Radeon card might just have tried to suck too much juice and blown it. I hope it is only that, and I've not fried something expensive lol
