unable to play any game after getting new PSU

Recently had a PSU crash on me.. after that i got a new PSU (Coolermaster extreme power plus 600W). Now when i boot up the system,everything is fine and the OS(Win XP) runs fine. however on launching any game.. even a non demanding one like Gyromancer, i get texture issues and then a system hang if i dont terminate the program quickly.

The graphics card is a Nvidia GTX 260.. is this happening because of damage to the card when the last PSU gave out or is it because of the current PSU not being able to supply enought power to the graphics card?

Any help/tips would be appreciated :)

[QUOTE May sound dumb but are you sure you plugged the PCI-E cable into the video card?

what are temps of all the components. be sure nothing is overheating, make sure the gpu fan is working also.
