Firstly doing a search on google for Compaq dc7600 results in few different models. Any specific model numbers.
Is it still under warranty / guarantee? , if yes dont touch inside and call for repair. if no continue below
Any beep codes when it starts. if yes , we should find out which motherboard it has and look for error codes , if no continue below.
Does it boot up at all ,electric ok?, lights flashing , fans spinning etc , if yes you could reset the bios if it doesnt work it might be hardware related. Try opening the cover and look for the battery ( remove for 15 secs ) or cmos clear jumper ( move to next pin ) and do a reset. If it still doesnt work check the connections for ram modules, cables etc.
As it looks like it is a small form factor and if pc had trouble cooling the electronics , it might be possible you burned the onboard gfx. if you burned the cpu it wouldnt start at all or the ram i am guessing.
