Sounds like a broken card, and your system doesn't like it.  I've had a
broken modem card short out a power supply.  It survived okay, it just
auto-shutdown until I removed the fault.

Unless you're electronically inclined, and don't mind trying to see if
you can fix a circuit board fault, I'd take it back to the store.
