Go to this site and it will show you the difference in where the space is in the card itself. You can look at your card and then look at the picture and tell by the space in your card which one you have.

Look at the motherboard type when you boot your computer. Search net,

Second PCI slots are shorter than ISA slots. AGP Slots are usually set back on MB.

In addition to what the other responders have said, download a little free program called SiSoft Sandra. It will tell you that and much more about your PC. You can also find out a lot by looking in System Information found at start, programs, accessories, system tools, system information. Or right click on the desktop open area select properties from the popup menu, settings tab, advanced button, adapter tab.
