Specify your system config and mention graphics card detail with OS and power supply.

Firstly you should know that your motherboard is discontinued by all board manufacturers.
Your board had 1 4X AGP slot, 6PCI slots and 1 CNR slot. The Gforce Fx-5200 card is a 8X AGP card and it doesnot support the 4X slot on your mobo. Hence it is not working. You have to find a decent 4X video card or change ur mobo.

That's right you have to upgrade to a new mobo, since your motherboard is
outdated!!
