I just installed a Radeon 7000 card & new monitor, and now my machine does not power-on after shutting down.
To turn it on, I have to unplug the power cable, wait a few seconds, plug in the mains & then press the power-on button. (My PC doesn't have a power switch on the back near the power supply)

On the BIOS power management set-up, I have ACPI enabled (the computer hangs if I disable ACPI here)
Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
