3D Mark 05 Fried My Computer

I had my mobile XP2500+ clocked to 200x12 temps never got above 46C even under 12hrs of prime. Prime95 gave no errors over that time and everything was working fine. I installed 3dMark05m and when it got to about 99% of the installation XP froze. I reset then the motherboard said it was entering safemode and went to the default FSB, XP loaded then I restarted went back into BIOS and put it back on the same settings it was on. Now my Radeon no longer works, the fan is dead and I cannot get any video. I had the FSB at 200, the memory at auto, the mem voltage up 1 notch from default, and the AGP voltage at auto. What the hell happened? I drove 40 minutes to Fry's to get a new vid card, well I installed it just a few mintutes ago and the new card wont work. No video
 
Hmm did you lock your Video Cards Frequency at 66mhz? If not it is *possible* however highly unlikely you burnt it out.

Try a PCI video card and see how goes.

Probably not burnt out just an error on your part, it happens 🙂

Im pretty sure it was a faulty motherboard, I went to FRY's and swapped it out with a new one, this one took alot more tweaking, but seems to be running fine.
