Oh. This is regarding that whole thing about your computer not running in 32 bit color?
You're sure you need PCI? Not PCI express or AGP? You'd be much better off with a PCI express or AGP card if your computer can use them.

nope looking at his comp specs hes gonna need PCI
Go to walmart in their computer section you should be able to find exactly what you need. they do have a few lower end video cards that you should be able to utilize. Another possibility is find a local computer repair shop tell them what you are looking for, any of the shops i know have old parts laying around that can be had for cheap. Really any video card made within the past 5 years should more than suffice for what you need

actually they sell fairly decent lower end vid cards which would be worlds better than what you have. Not trying to be argumentive, just letting you know

well the only one left here I called its called blue sky computers,and tp tell you how crappy at something this town is,they dont carry what I need video cards or memory,none the less I can even buy a stinkin palstic model in this town<so Im left to shopping online for a cheap pci card that will run 32 bit graphic displays,at least 128 mb,Just something to put in here so I can go and run a couple programs that requires 32 bit,eventually there is a difference on my pc cause Im running 24 bit true color,at about 1024x800 reso,not good enough to run these programs!
