I'm trying to determine what "not really new" refers to? If the card is
within a year or two old it may work. Anything older than that I'd don't
know.

The difference lies in the slot arrangement. If the video card is a legacy
card, it will not fit do to the alignment position of the slot. 

You can look at the card and compare it with the slot to see if it will fit.
The slot on the card should line up with the bridge in the AGP slot on the
board. DO NOT modify either in hopes that you can make it fit or work. It
will render your motherboard useless.
