@SillySimmerGirl -- The first new PSU I tried is a Roseville Valens (but only 500W, as recommended on the GPU box); the one Installed today is the Corsair CX750M; and yes, I had to use the cables that came with the new PSUs since the old cables are permanently attached to the old PSU.
Beeps -- there are none; everything sounds almost normal as though the HDD is firing up, but then nothing happens as long as the new GPU is plugged in. I disconnected the 8-pin power cable and connected a monitor to the motherboard's VGA connection and it booted just fine, reconnected the 8-pin and again, only the sound of a hard whirring around but none of the clicks and such that would indicate Windows was doing anything.
Chatterbox Tech Gurus...... HELP!!! (w/ installation of Radeon R9 380 GPU)
