I just installed a new corsair 750 watt power supply in my PC, but now my PC won't connect to my WiFi or detect any near by WiFi connections.

Alright will do, also one more thing, my old power supply had 2 thin black cables attach to it by tape? I had to remove them so I could replace the power supply. Once I out in the new supply I couldn't tape back the cables since it would block the fan. Do you think those cables had anything to do with the WiFi?

Not exactly sure, but it goes into the same compartment where the WiFi card would be. (The WiFi card and where the cables are connected to are closed off in a separate compartment in front of the PC) Hopefully that makes sense. I still haven't opened it up since I Dont have the proper screw driver to pop off the screws. The PC is an HP Envy 750-150.

ok first thing u do is...go to device manager and uninstall the card...then reboot the pc and let it detect the card automatically...if that doesnt start working, then uninstall and reinstall the latest drivers...
after that u might need to reattach the card physically...

It detected and reinstalled the card but no WiFi. Also just discovered my DVD drive doesn't work.( which is also a part of the Compartment I told you about) I'm guessing its going to be a bigger problem than just the WiFi connection. Thank you though for your help! I appreciate it.

Just checked and my power supply is not connected to the DVD drive, but I do not any cable to connect to it. I only have an extra SATA cable but its too big to connect to the drive.
