Thanks anubis! I guess my next few paychecks will go to a new computer! Lol.. That or sell it for a small profit!

Thanks guys! Oh and for the video capture card, don't worry about it! I'm going to try and uninstall the the driver, then re-install it!

Thanks for taking time to deal with me!

If you look closely, you can see where the AGP slot is supposed to be on the motherboard. And the ATI video chipset that is hardwired on the motherboard, using the circuitry normally used for the slot. :wink:

But since it seems like you will still have an available PCI slot (the white ones) after installing the capture card. So using a PCI graphics card is an option. Here are some PCI Video Cards at Newegg.com for reference.

But that is a pretty old computer... :|

Aww.. Leave its age out of this! It runs perfectly for making AMV's. Although my downstairs computer is much better, and runs faster, I actually upgraded this computer by hand. Therefore, it has a special bond with me. And I'm broke and cant' buy a new one :lol: . I'm working on it though! As for the video capture card, I'm going to ignore it for now. DVD footage is better to work with anyway..
