common prob. with early xk is the hood fluid turning to jelly, the answer is to clean out the system. ie pipework, resovoir etc. to open the hood, open the valve on the pump, located in boot rh, remove blanking plug in headlining. use allen key to release forward hood latch,the hood can then be worked manually.to change the fluid you have to remove the forward hood latch. disconnect pipes, press the hood switch to pump out the old fluid,remove the pump and drain out the old fluid, work the hood manually 3 or 4 times to extract the remaining old fluid, the correct fluid to put back is pentosill it will bleed itself.if this is not the cause of the prob. then its electrical. go to a auto electrician you will need a wiring diagram of the system to sort that out, its got loads of relays e.t.c. and is controlled through the body processor module.
Was the old card on the mother broad? If so put the video cable on it and restart it go to to bios set up and turn off your old video card. If not take out the old card.
Howdy. Black smoke from an electric motor usually means damage. You say it worked after, that's sort of good. I suggest you use it until it dies and keep it unplugged when not in use. Plan to replace it fairly soon, though.
Good luck.

I have found that just because a processor will fit in a socket, does not mean it will work. I asume the old processor was working; put it back in and try before doing anything else. One other consideration is: Windows (from 2000 forward) keeps a record of the processor number. If you change processors, Windows will not work, and will start but go the the blue screen. This is a built-in feature to keep you from using your software installation in other computers. If you do not mind reinstalling Windows, along with all your other software and updates, you might double check to make sure 1) the processor is situated correctly in the socket. Most will go in only 1 way; there are some you can get in wrong, and 2) that the new processor is fitting all the way down, all 4 sides. If your computer does start OK with the old processor, this would be a great time to make a backup of your files, along with a written record of which hardware you have and which drivers you will need.
I am assuming you have a DLC-8S Pro Custom 11, and not another Cuisinart food processor.
Remove the work bowl and all other parts completely from base.
Plug the base in, and turn it on.
Use a pen to press in the dark grey or black button on top of the base.
If you hear a spinning or other noise, the motor is still good.
Now that you have verified that the motor is good:
Put each work bowl piece on one at a time - if you don't out it on one at a time, it will not lock in properly.
Put work bowl on with work bowl handle facing front, make sure bowl locks.
Put lid on with hollow feed tube facing the back of the food processor.
Put pusher sleeve into lid's feed tube, with sliding lock switch facing the front of the food processor.
It does sound like an overheating problem, although i have also found that this card doesn't work particularly well on all AMD motherboards, although it's an asus card and asus mobo you are using, it is the nvidia chip.
You may find an ATI chip card works better on your board.
Also check the voltage on your AGP slot as newer cards work on less voltage than the older ones.
