Cmon trekkie, lets correctly follow the chain of logic.

i have a radeon 9250. i used to have an intel internal graphics thing. i cant hear any other sounds. i have a 2.4 ghz intel celeron processor and 1 gig of ram. everything is exactly how it was before it stopped working except the graphics card. i think it may be the processor. is there any kinda cheap processor that you guys can reccomend?
edit: i have checked the settings, and turned everything down. it wont run in safemode if i try to do it when it asks me (after i restart the comp, and try to run it it asks). the comp crashes when i try to run it in full screen and i cant ctrl alt del, alt tab or alt f4 out or anything, i have to manually reboot
*hint hint* what do you need to do when you change your graphics card? install new drivers and?
disable the onboard graphics AND uninstall the old drivers completly

See if you power supply is still plugged into your motherboard and sound card, if you have one. Also, restart your computer and count how many times it beeps, and in what sequence if there is one.
you think he would be ppsting on the computer if there was no power to his motherboard? Find me a soundcard that needs to be plugged in to a powersupply while you are at it.

everything is plugged in right, and there were no beeps when i restarted. any low price processors you guys might reccomend?

No beeps means motherboard failure or no system speaker. As for the processors, an Pentium 4 or an AMD Athlon 64 are the cheaper ones I can think of, but you might be disappointed if that isn't your problem.
*hint hint* He is still posting on it. Does your computer beep in a series of patterns when it turns on normally?
My guess would be a software issue with drivers or something similar. Try uninstalling the game and make sure you uninstall all the old graphics drivers prior to the ATI drivers.
