Well here it is...
Apparently the computer made a loud boom noise and the set went off. Won't boot anymore.
Found the video card fan had seized up and a bunch of caps exploded.
I counted there are 6 FZ 1500uF/6.3V caps and 5 of them had exploded.
There are also 4 FZ 470uF/16V but they have not exploded.
A quick meter check found the 5V rail (?) for the 6.3V is shorted. This probably explains why the mobo would not boot with this card in the PCI-e slot.
Haven't decided if I should recap this card yet...
