Theres no additional power requirements for this card, it runs off the 75 watts provided by the PCIe slot in your system. Your 450 w PSU is far more than enough. It will not have any effect on other components. This series of cards even recommended a 450w PSU for the whole system.

EDIT, just looked and it does take a mini molex connector (provides 75w additional max) which your PSU will have, still as I said it recommends a 450W PSU for it.

There is a mini molex connector on the back of the board where you need to plug in PSU power (looks like a plug for a floppy drive) did you connect that?

If that is connected then you either have a configuration issue or a defective card. Being that the card is 10 years old theres a chance its no longer working.
