Question Graphics card preventing computer from turning on after new processor is installed.

[Stokaboter]

A month or so ago, i decided that it was time for an upgrade, i got 2 gb ram from the store, and a amd64 processor, i installed the ram and the computer was working just fine, then i went ahead and shut down my PC, and installed the new processor, after installing the new processor the computer launched just fine but when the computer was booting into windows, the screen started glitching and lagging, me being stupid, i restarted the computer and tried again, my computer started booting into windows again and wabam, computer is suddenly shut down, not turning on again, i unplugged the power supply and plugged it back in, the computer started but for only a millisecond, the fan started spinning while it was on and the power button has a light on it, the computer shuts off again, and this time no light on the front when i turn on the computer and the fan spins for a nanosecond, I removed everything and it turns out it was the graphics card, I tried putting the old processor in but the graphics card isn't working, I eventually just went with it and reset my bios so i can use the integrated graphics card which was disabled, is there any fix to this or do i have to buy a new graphics card?

Yes - need to know replacement cpu also.

And you didn't provide any info about PSU used.

"" PSU is fujitsu DPS-300AB-44 B ""

That sounds like some cheap/generic low-end PSU model to me. NOT recommend for a Gaming PC. Replace this power unit..

Wait just a minute

All components are pretty old.
It could be failed graphics card or it could be PSU not able to support components anymore.

Test your graphics card in a different PC.
PSU should be replaced also. It can provide only 264W on 12V rails.

I would just scrap that old system instead of putting more money into it. The CPU and video card range you are looking at are no good for any modern game if that is what you are looking to use it for. For $100 you can get a much better used tower and another $50 gets you a nice used video card like a 750Ti.

Forget the 12v rail. Look at the 3.3v rail. 26.4 watts.
