never mind, it says xp doesn't work with DX10 so i found a dx9 one, seems pretty decent everyone says it works good, here it is http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814195031

ok i found one of newegg, http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161209 does that work with XP Pro though? i got the agp part and evertthing but it says nothing about what it supports, it says it works with vista but says nothing about xp

ok thats what i needed to know, although, the reviews on the site he danleff sent, (tigerdirect) say that card is not even compatible with MS paint, if so thats really lame, if you see any other good agp cards with 512MB lemme know, before i order this one. Thanks if you end up seeing one im willing to pay around 120-200ish for the card

^ think i misinterpreted what you said up top, you said now that we know you have 3 PCI, but the program told me 4x, either mistake on my part or yours, not sure, but in your eyes this video card should be alright, correct? 256MB of system memory (1GB+ recommended for Windows Vista). Installation software requires CD-ROM drive. DVD playback requires DVD drive. 350 watt or greater power supply. i have the memory, got cd drive, 350W exactly power supply, dont know about dvd drive, mine might be cd and dvd if there is such a thing but yea, i dont plan on using it for movies anyways.

would me having 4x PCI effect it? since the card requires 3?

i have a 350W power supply exactly as for everything else it sounds good i think..

well you said i dont have the pci-e but i believe i have the agp thing so would this work? http://www.directron.com/vt26xt512agp.html and is it any good? or could i also buy the PCI ones not just the agp ones?

Ok i think i have the info you need, ive got a program like the one you sent me that should have EVERYTHING you need here ya go hold up. motherboard- MSI LTD MS-7104 Chipset - VIA P4M800 Pro/CE/CN700 + VT8237® slots- 4xPCI, 1xAGP, v3.5 if you need ANYTHING else lemme know, this software tells me every single detail of my computer. That should be all the info i need correct? if so.. will the video card i posted up top work for it?

ive looked ALL around my motherboard and dont see anything saying what i have! help!

Ok so ive been eyeing down some video cards, sorry about other topic.. ive come across this http://www.directron.com/3850xtremepcs.html at the time im running intel pentium 4, windows XP pro, and i dont know my motherboard only thing i see on there is MSI i believe if that means anything, how do i tell if its compatible with my computer, like, what do i look at? the type of memory(ex ddr3) or what? So a summary would be, what do i have to look at about my computer, and the graphics card to tell if its compatible? ------------------------------------------------------------ Operating:System: Windows XP Pro (5.1, Build 2600) Processor:Intel® Pentium® 4 CPU 3.00 GHz (2CPUs) Memory: 1022MB RAM DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0c DISPLAY Name: RADEON 9200 PRO Family Chip type: RADEON 9200 PRO AGP DAC Type: International DAC (500MGz) Approx.
