No, you need a Dell board, as they're wired differently to normal boards. Contact Dell for a replacement.

Hey thanks for the reply, the computer is actually a 5150 but i doubt that makes any difference. So nobody ever put an aftermarket board on a dell machine?

the problem with that computer is that the board is on the wrong side of the case so that all connections are different from regular boards & cases. normal cases when viewed from the front has the board on the rightside of the case but your case has the board on the leftside.
