If this is a high end AGP card it might require extra power. First of all make sure the wattage of your power supply is sufficient. Secondly check the card's manual - sometimes you need to put an extra power wire into the card. I'd try this card on another computer if you can.

I wonder what an ACC is?

Open the case and look at the power supply and tell us the make and wattage. Is this a Dell, HP, etc or a home grown?
