Video card doesn't fit into AGP
I just got a new Compaq computer with an on-board video. It also has an AGP slot. On my previous machine I had a nice AGP video card, so I wanted to place that into the new machine. However, the video card physically does not fit into the new AGP slot. The part that sticks out by a couple millimeters is that short plastic piece that has no wires/contacts on it. What do I do? Why wouldn't the card just fit?

and it doesn't work? i have had cards like that , that will fit..but hang over
there is a new AGP rev out... voltage differences, third "section" connector.. called AGP Pro or something like that.
I would go onto Compaq's site and see what they call this slot

I figured it out: the card slot just needed to unlocked. You pull on it before inserting the card. I'll just give the points to the first person who answered. Thanks for your time.
