    It'll do.

    You still didn't tell me, if you have that AGP slot, or only PCI.
    Now, you can look inside your computer. You know what NOT to touch.....hehehe.

    OH I thought you could see from the photos - I only have PCI :-(

    I only have the ISA, PCI, and memory bank slots.

    Yes, I now know what not to touch, but there were so many other pretty things that I did not even try touching!  LOL

    So, you know what video card you'll be looking for. There is a link somewhere back there.

      I e-mailed it to myself so I would not lose it. And I updated the prior post right before you posted, if you wish to read it again. Nothing important, just a little joke. :-)

          Just to let everyone know... I bought the video card and RAM - My son is now playing all the crazy, bloodly, shooting games that he can find.

          His Resident Evil Game works! Yeah!

          I am still trying to figure out where all the settings should go.

          Device settings - Color Correction

          BUT my son is happy, so I am!


          Thank you Broni!

          Video card is better to be left alone.

            YES SIR!

            Take note: Leave video card alone, and buy lotion for itchy fingers! LOL

              Ok so i've got a similar problem as nontechymom. got 128MB video mem. and i'm trying to play sims on it and it freezes up contantly and takes forever to load. game only requires 32MB so whats the deal? my ram is is 384MB and processor is 1.8GHz so i doubt those are the problem. the cip is a VIA Chrome9 HC IGP.
