My graphics card worked for a day, now it's just a fan in my computer.

Hello guys,

So i just purchased a new Zotac GTX 750ti and a evga 500w power supply. I tried to used my graphics card with my stock 300w and it worked completely fine until i moved it my computer into my living room where it seemed to stop functioning to make matters worse I tried to remove the power supply and insert the new one where it stopped powering the back fan. This led to a system fan failure screen that gives me options on boot for f1 and f2. I can run my computer without the card on normal integrated video since my card isn't being detected via nvidia experience driver installs. Currently my card just sits there blowing air with no beeping sounds or anything. I'm purchasing a new motherboard and gpu to replace the issue (hopefully)
I was wondering if there's anything I might of done wrong.
Sorry i'm a noob.

With the 750 Ti removed, do a chipset and BIOS update on the motherboard, disable the onboard video in Windows Device Manger, shut down the system. Install the 750 Ti, go into the BIOS and set the default video to the secondary card (PEG or something similar), move the video connection to the card, reboot the system and see if that works.

Hard to make out what happened and what you did. You had a system with a 300 watt PSU, worked fine, then you moved it and it stopped working? Did you try re-seating the connections?

You replaced that 300 watt original PSU with the EVGA right? What back fan are you talking about? In the case? Or in the card? If the system works fine without the card, I'd say the card is damaged unless you don't have all the power in properly to the motherboard or the card if it needs it. Don't think you need to replace the motherboard yet till you can test the card.

-Those are my new components and is resulting in the same effect. I meant the fan on the back of the tower ( resolved with new motherboard) Everything is new from stock except my cpu, hdd, and rom.

-I adjusted everything correctly and it seems to still power up and spin the fan on hi without any beeps and signal.

- The Zotac geforce gtx 750ti replaced the integrated cpu. There is also no power insert on the top right of the card because it is plug n play and i believe it requires the board to power it. Here's the link to the card. https://amzn.com/B00M27TSJS

In short, the card spins can't connect on start up to monitor because of no signal and not being detected. Everything apart from the gpu seems to work.

Things I have done:
> Replace mobo
> added the 500w supply

Things I couldn't do:
> Update the drivers from the zotac website because it redirects me to nvidias experience and won't detect my card. (because no signal when i attach the hdmi so i run the integrated version,)
