Do you have access to any other video card to try? Failing that, can you clean the slot you're using with compressed air and reseat your existing card? When in doubt about the success of a hardware upgrade, open everything back up and do it all again, except slowly and more carefully. You'd be amazed how often that fixes things. And if you still have your old video card, putting everything back to exactly the way it was before you started the upgrade can help narrow down issues in cases like this.

In general I really would not expect an SSD to go south so quickly after an unrelated upgrade. If anything I would double check that you didn't bump a drive connector slightly loose while you were doing the video card upgrade.
