Video card problem Need help ASAP

[Hockeekidd98]

Bought a used 9700 pro, when I plug it into the agp slot, the computer will not boot up, upon removal the system will boot up fine. When plugged in a LED next to the agp slot lights up red. I understand this can be cause by not hooking the video card up to the psu first before plugging it into the agp slot, however i have done that.

Any ideas before i send it back?
Mother board is a7n8x deluxe.

look in the manual and see what the red light means to be sure, but sounds like a dead card

Already looked, it mentions it in the index, gives the page number, but on the page number it doesn't really mention anything about it.
