I got a new motherboard, now my old video card won't work!WHY?

Here's the board http://www.intel.com/design/motherbd/bv2/ The video card is just an older AGP 2X/4X 32MB one. System seems to be running and all, but no output to any monitor (I tried 2). I also tried an old PCI video card I had laying around. Zip.

Update:

I doesn't appear to have an integrated video card, you mean on board right? I realize the pis of the motherboard show it as having one, but it doesn't, just a serial port no onboard VGA. If that's not what you mean how do I override? I do not have any CDs, got the motherboard on eBay - I'm sure the board works, he's got 100% positive ratings and sells pulled boards all the time.

    I think you should take out the AGP card and run the drivers for the motherboard CD making sure that you install the default drivers for the onboard video and AGP support drivers as well. Get your machine up and running first. If all is well, uninstall the onboard Intel drivers for the video and install the AGP card. Let windows recognize the card and install the drivers if you have them.

    that should work ok, are there any beeps? are you sure its the video card? try to clean the contact parts of video card, RAM with eraser then plug it again.
