Default R9000 display corrupted after power suply fails?

My power suply was burned and after that my Radeon 9000 display erroneus
colors and a totaly corrupted screen.

At first I could solve this restarting the sistem but now it always looks
corrupted.

Any idea of what happens or what can I do?

Thanks
Xavi

Lets ask a different question-
When a PSU goes faulty and lets excessive voltage through to PC components,
how much damage may it do to a graphics card?
For answer see above.

Happened to my son's PC recently - mobo, cpu, DVD, AGP - all trashed. I
think you got off lightly.
