Just installed a new graphics card.

Asus 7750 1gd5.

I had it previously installed but uninstalled it after a power failure from the computer. So I bought a new power supply.

eVga 600 bronze 600w.

Installed the power supply, reinstalled the graphics card.

After booting up the computer I uninstalled the old graphics card drivers from the computer. The computer prompted a restart. After reinstalling the screen wouldn't register a signal so I nuked the comp and restarted again. It was at this point that my system told me it needed to recover lost disk files.

After that recovered I downloaded the new drivers onto my desktop (the folders). Before I could open them however my computer automatically downloaded the drivers for the built in graphics card AMD 3200.

I uninstalled those and started installing the new drivers. The computer blue screened. Turned the blessed thing back on and tried installing the drivers again. This time (and every time after) the installation completes but tells me that there were "warnings" during the installation. Upon opening the log file it says that the driver installation failed.

I'm at a loss here. I've done everything in the exact same manner that I did when I previously installed the graphics card and this puppy should be running fine now. So I could use some help here.

My system specs are:

OS: Windows 7
AMD Phenom II X4 quad-core processor
8GB DDR2

1TB HDD.

I have more than enough space on the computer, everything is installed and plugged in correctly. Everything is turning on (including the graphics card fan).

But my system won't detect the new graphics card in device management, the old graphics card keeps reinstalling its uninstalled drivers (i stopped it from doing that for the moment) and the "new" drivers for the graphics card refuse to install.

Help. Help. Help. Help.
