    NO, are u sure that ur tryting to connect it to a PCI slot, and that it is a PCI card not a PCI-E card, what card is it u have brought and what motherboard do u have. Does it Fit when u put it in "Back to front"?.

    if it is a pci-e card then it will not fit in a pci card right or wrong way, the motherboard will need to have a pci-e graphics card slot, a lot of the older motherboards have AGP slots NOT PCI-E
