    You will need to buy an new graphics card. Any recent card will have them.

    1. How much do you have to spend on a new one
    2. What type of ports do you have.

    You will need to open your PC to see what ports they have. Look in the bottom left side of the case and you should see somthing that looks like this: http://www.beginthread.com/Article/Dave/How%20to%20assemble%20a%20pc/agp%20pci%20isa%20slots.jpg except there will be things in these ports. If you have the top brown one you will be ok, this is an AGP port. If you only have whit ones then you will be severly limited to what graphics card you can get and will not be able to run KOTR 2.

    The best you could get for about €200 would be a 6600 GT.

    But depending on the rest of your machine it might not be worth spend all your money on a graphics card.
