    get an agp card on adverts.ie,or buy a pci grahics card peats,maplins 20euro, note uses standard pci slot, not pci express slot.Try and get one at least 64meg pci vram,memory,or agp at least 128 meg vram .
    Have you a spare pci slot.The pci slot is white.

    yeah i have a pci slot free, was looking on adverts and all prices seem to be around 50 euro for a second hand card, anything for around 20 seems to be worse then my burnt out ancient 9800 xt, how much would be the cheapest apg card these days brand new??

    appreciate your help btw

    An AGP card with be faster than PCI, but if you're not gaming on it anymore then it won't matter. Something that handles Video better might be more useful. What are you using the machine for.
