Graphics cards
is there a site that i can get the latest graphics card ( suggestions would be more than welcome )

which will make sure my system can run the latest games without a hitch.

Advent 3212

I have alredy added more ram to bring it up to 1gb

Its all very confusing for a lady ( Mr Bean no snidy comments. come to think of it better include the Brat pack )

Ok you have a APG x4 Socket.
You will have real trouble getting a graphics card for that let alown a powerfull one.
Would you consider upgrading your motherboard?

Yes but things like this usualy get to more things needing replacing.
As its an socket motherboard it will need a new processer to fit in.
And the ram you have just brough probily will be incompatable.

It all mounts up.

I just had to complety redo my system because of the PCI-Express invension.

But it is worth it.

It would make sence.
Old systems are hard to upgrade, and I presume you have had it for a while.

Its probily cheaper to buy one that upgrade as well.
(and easier)

It looks like it was a good system in its time.
But if you looking to play games you will need newer
