Check your specs:

Your board has an AGP slot, but if you're still running the 1.3GHz Celeron & 256MB RAM, there's no point in investing a lot of money in a video card.

You can get a Radeon 9600 for about $60, a 9600Pro for about $70...anything better would be a waste. You should also increase your RAM amount to 512MB
