I would appreciate some help on this. What do I look for in the board
spec's to get one that fits?
Thanks.

the card on sale is PCI Express so not compatible.
a search on newegg for agp 4x should do the trick, the cheapest
currently is at $25.99
I would look on ebay for a 2nd one if it's just for testing sake unless
someone close to you has a spare old AGP card they can lend you
Hope this helps

Ok, that gives me something to look for, the key words the being
AGP-4X!<br>
<br>
Apparently that will leave me with a card I most likely will not be
able to use on anything else?<br>
<br>
I'm already into this stupid effort for over $100. I bought the board
from a guy on Craigslist, a gamble and I seem to have lost. When it
works it's good but the darn thing is erratic, presently refusing to
boot at all.<br>
<br>
Thanks for the help.<br>
