Compro VIDEOMATE TVGOLD+

I recenty bought a Compro VIDEOMATE TVGOLD+, which is a TV Tuner Card. I installed it easily, an it worked fine. That was last thursday(3/10). I just booted my computer up an hour and a half ago, and started to watch TV,when i smelt something funny and noticed the card was on fire. I quickly turned off the computer and unplugged everything. After i removed the card, it turns out that the 2 outer pins that connect the card to the mobo were burnt.

I tried to boot the computer, and it turned on but I got no video signal, just a blank screen, with a blinking green power light.

I was wondering if it was likely that my Mobo was fried, my video card was fried, or both. I was also wondering, would Newegg RMA my compro card?

Thanks ahead of time
 
bump.

Also, when I turn the computer on all the fan LEDS light up. THe green mobo light also turns on.
 
could anyone just tell me if they think that the mobo and the vid card are fried, or just the video card.
