Errrr, need some help....Messing with my sisters computer, i have everything in, hd, cpu, ram, everything, but the monitor doesnt seem to on....anyone know whats wrong?

Yesterday i attached a burnt out floppy drive, hoping it'd work for sum reason, when i on'd it smoke started coming out of the computer, i dont know if the smoke came from the floppy or CPU because the CPU was partially disconnected. When i smelled the floppy it reaked, but the smoke from the cpu could have made the floppy have that odor because it was right under it.

Does anyone know how I can fix this? My monitor doesnt on, but everything powers up. I think the computer doesnt get passed bios because the keyboard only blinks once..

Open your computer case and take out the graphics card. Then put the graphics card back FIRMLY. Also, can you actaully boot up? Meaning, if you turn on and the monitor won't go on, you should still hear a bootup BEEP. 1 beep = everything is alright 2 beeps = keyboard not found 4 beeps = video error.
