thats not good, when electronics pop its generally due to too much voltage which could have fried something. ide recommend pulling it out and waiting for tech support, dont let it pop again.

also make sure that it was seated correctly when you had it in,
if it was in at an angle it could have messed up alot of things.

that pop could have the same effect of pulling ram out when the computer is on, or the card may work perfectly. wait for the tech support.
