I recently bought a 9800gtx and have been trying to install it myself despite not very much knowledge about computers at all. I remove my old graphics card, insert the 9800gtx and connect the white/transparent things from the card to the computer. I boot up the computer and get a

"VGA - No Signal
DVI - No Signal"

I'm not really sure what I've done wrong. I've heard something about power supply but I know nothing about it. Are they different from EU to US? (I'm EU).

Thanks.

Input voltage is different, but output voltage to the computer components is the same.

--Does that Packard Bell's power supply provide enough juice to power such a high-end card?

--Did you connect the two 6-pin PEG power connectors to the card? If you did, did you have to use a Y-adaptor for the second power connector? If you did, then your power supply wasn't designed for such a high-end card.
