Recommend video cards details above .thx in advanced.|||Well.....your computer is pretty outdated .I don't know if it can handle 7 but AGP video card is a lot faster than PCI. The Vista drivers will work fine on windows 7|||i'd suggest getting a 256 mb or more because its hard enough to run efficiently on vista with 128 mb while multitasking.|||Make sure the video card you are buying has a driver compatible with Windows 7. You can find this out on the manufacturer's website.

You need an AGP card, as that is what slot your mobo has.

Here's a list of AGP video cards you can check to see if there are Win 7 drivers for.

Vista drivers might work for you too.

Praying your power supply is 400W:

Unfortunately no 450Ws other than PCI Card. They don't mention the wattage on most of these.

You can also search for AGP Video Card. Best Buy has two. Both are 300W or higher
