Once you find that out, just get a replacement and take out the old card and slide in the new, unless your video card is onboard, if it is then dont ask me  |

Then you push the other one in (make sure you have an AGP/PCI-E slot and the coinciding graphics card (I would suggest an ATI x800 XL AIW, very cheap, and has a TV tuner, will play all of your games at top notch) |

Points: 461,100.07 Donate | | Woops, the deal for the X800 XL AIW is over. You can pick up a Nvidia 6600GT for around $99 at Staples here in canada. $129 at newegg .
I had a eVGA 6600GT before i upgraded, very nice card, fast for the price. It should be able to play most of your games on high quality, dependin on the resolution (it should play 1280x1024 at medium-high.
Edit: Staples here in Canada has a BFG 6600 GT that is overclocked for $99 Canadian. Very good price! | |
