Video card fan dying, tried to replace card, computer won't boot

This Pavillion came preinstalled with an nVidia GeForce GT 630 graphics card. The fan on this card is going bad - the card smells "burny" when I run it, the fan runs really loud and the computer is crashing while playing graphics-heavy games.

 

I tried replacing it with a PNY Verto GeForce GT 730 2048 MB DDR3 card. But now, with the Verto installed, my Pavillion won't boot up, it just hangs on the HP splash screen. I cannot boot in Safe Mode nor can I access BIOS settings.

 

The Verto's specs seemed like it would work in my Pavillion - PCIe 2.0, at least 300W PSU. I've been searching online for help but am unable to determine a fix for my problem. 

 

Any tips?
