Well, make sure its the correct rev of pci.

What color is the slot? If its white its PCI, ifs another color its something else.

Is this card new? could it be a older card, there are 3.3v and 5v pci .. the notch is reversed between the 2 types.

Since you have a newer pc, you have a 3.3v pci slot.

As said, it could be just a matter of squesing it in .. as in the case is just a little off.
