Computer Will not Start with Wireless Nic

Ok when I install this wireless networking card [D-Link AirPlus Xtreme G (DWL-G520)] my computer screen stays black and my monitor light stays amber but yet when I remove this card from my system the computer boots up just fine and I do not know why this card is such a problem with my system. I mean it works in another system just not mine. I have tried the card in every PCI slot except 1 and 2 because 1 is for video card and 2 is for my sound card. I was thinking about disabling on board lan but would that help?

System Spec's Below

Intel D875PBZ motherboard
Intel Pentium 4 2.8GHz w/Hyperthreading (ack need upgrade!)
4 x 512 meg Valueram Corsair Dual Channel DDR ram (pc3200 I think)
Antec Truepower 480watt (I hate Antec but as it still works I will keep it)
ATI Radeon 9700 pro (current video card still on RMA)
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Gamer Edition
MadDog DVD-RW
Typical 3.5 Floppy
