So do you ever see anything on the monitor? Did it once work?

does your motherboard have onboard video? if it does you need to make sure your bios has it disabled (which you can't do without a monitor) check the mobo itself for a possible jumper. on my mobo's case... i have a two jumpers under the pci slots... one for onboard video and the other for audio. also - if this is a new video card, your pc may still be trying to run through the old video card (your using pci-e right?) if your old gpu was pci - just pci, then the pc probly isn't going to find it on it's own. you'd need to keep the old gpu installed long enough to go to windows and select your new gpu as the default. (right-click, properties, display... you'll see from there what to do.) as far as not all things powering down... you got me there man... maybe like a cool down period or something. i wouldn't change that if it's what the pc wants to do. but if it's just staying on forever... that could be your psu or mobo being faulty.

This is absurdly hot...258.8ºF. Whatever that is, you need to cool it down. Once you do that, things may return to normal, or at least, it eliminates that possibility. You need to buy a fan and heatsink or something, because if you keep it running at that temp, it's almost certainly going to fail/melt.

Those 126C temps are a common error on SpeedFan's part - there's nothing actually running that hot in the system.
