The fan sound sounds like the card is not getting enough power and cannot start properly so it is 'hanging' with the fan at 100%.
Change the PSU, it only has 19A on the 12v rail, assuming it is actually delivering that much.
Look for 400W from a good maker like: Pc Power and Cooling, Corsair, Seasonic, OCZ or Antec.

but why at first the 8800gt work????

The 8800GT worked but overloaded the PSU, which was damaged, causing the 8800GT to fail. Now the damaged PSU cannot provide enough power to run the 8800GTS which is why it is doing nothing except spinning its fan at full speed.
If you continue to use this PSU you risk destroying the entire computer.
