Get a correct HSF assembly and a new PSU right off the bat. You shouldn't really be mixing tech in that way and a PSU that old unless it's a real powerhouse I wouldn't trust it. As for the monitor not displaying anything it might be because it's not hooked up correctly or maybe the gfx is bad, who knows. First things first though, get a new HSF above everything (one meant for the AMD). Have you also tried resetting the BIOS just to see if it stops? (I'm sticking by my heat warning issue only because my board does it to me in the same sound you describe).
