Default Hooray, I destroyed my computer!

Well, I just got my new AGP video card today (ATI Radeon 9600 All-in-wonder), installed it, everything looked fine, and...black. I followed the instructions provided to a T so that I wouldn't screw anything up and have my computer be out of commission indefinitely, but it was not meant to be.

For those unfamiliar with the card, instead of VGA or DVI ports on the card itself it has an attachment to an adapter, from which come two VGA connections, and a connection to a remote control system. The VGA connections are labeled "1" & "2," "1" being the primary connection. I have tried every conceivable combination of monitors and connections, to no avail.

Do you guys have any idea what could be wrong? I uninstalled the old drivers before installing the card (per the instructions), but it is still not working. Should I cry? SCKM?
