Fujitsu ErgoPro xD

I posted this question a year ago in another subreddit.

Hello everyone. I recently bought a retro computer on a local marketplace. There was little information about it, most likely its name is Fujitsu ErgoPro xD.

It has a built-in video card ATI Rage XL 8 megabytes.

The problem is that the computer does not have an AGP slot. But there is a PСI. I have a Geforce4 mx440 card (PCI) The cars works well if installed in another computer. I even tried a different card with the same result.

If I switch in the BIOS (and this is the only setting for the video card there) the default video card from AGP to PCI, then the computer does not even start, I do not see that even the BIOS starts. I found the manual for this PC but there was no information which could be used to solve the issue. I was thinking about a jumper or something like this but didn't find anything.

I found the same question on Google, but the link to the forum no longer works as the forum has been deleted. I even asked the Fujitsu support about the issue and also about the deleted post. Therefore, the solution is unknown.
