Don't expect anybody to help you with an attitude like that.

You said u plugged in the power slot and u only have 1 does it require 2 or something?

I used to get this error and i just used to reboot comp and it worked.. but what i suggest is double checking everything is secure in ur comp... so you could either check by looking or take everything out that u just clip in like the ram and gfx card etc etc and make sure all connections are in properly.... do that and let us know if it works...

But initially u will find when u google people will advise u to make backup disk or reformat but i thought that when i first got it but to me that should always be last option...

As it was working fine before u put in new gfx card so it could be hardware fault something loose....

Reboot machine and go into the Bios

Disable leagacy & Change boot order to boot from CD first.

F10 and save
