I built a computer and i turned my computer on and i smelled burning so i shut it off right away and unplugged it. I made sure nothing was loose and tuned it back on again. There was no smell of burning but by screen was all garbbled. I took out my video card and saw there was a small burn on the bottom of it and put it in another computer to makes sure it still worked and it did. I sent it back anyway to Sapphire for a replacement since it is a 500 dollar card and it is still under warranty. Then i put another video card into my mobo and there was no data getting to the screen at all. So i was guessing that my agp slot blew out becuase everything sounded like it was all booting up. And i also sent back my mobo to Abit. So I would like to know if anyone had any similar problems and if they know what could have caused this to happen. And no i haven't overclocked my card. Both my mobo and video card are in my sig.
