Your computer has an integrated AGP video card.
Check and see if your computer actually has an AGP slot. If not, you're severely limited because you would have to buy a PCI card. Your documentation should state if it has one, or pop the cover and look.
"...but in my defense, it was dark, I was drunk, and it was delicious!"

ok well i just checked all i have is pci slots whats the best card to get for a pci card within 100 - 130$?

Probably this one. It will do open g/l 1.5 and DX9.

thanks alot. I just have one more question can any of you suggest a good stick of memory at a affordable cost? I only have 256 mb right now I want to upgrade it to 1 gb.

Just wait for a moment there!!.
1.Do you realize that ur ghraphic card is in a form of pci slot.You cant do much in pci graphic cards.Very much of ur applications will be limited due pci(3D applications).Since ur mobo dont have AGP slot i would suggest that u might upgarde ur mobo as well,that is buying a new one with AGP slot in it.I wont suggest u to buy new pci graphic cards because how new the thing is IT STILL PCI CARDS!!!
2.And for ur memory can upgrade ur memory as much as u want(depend on how many memory slot u had)advancepc
