    Is your gfx card a 5700pci or 5700agp? If it's a pci, just find an open PCI slot...there should be at least 3 pci slots on your mobo.

        Open your case up and find the PCI slots. Then unlock one of the PCI slots and insert the card. Look at the bottom of the card and the slot to figure out which way to insert it. Press it down with light-moderate pressure and when it's fully inserted, lock it in.

        Make sure your PC is off

                          ha yea, well the next thing i'll get will most likely be in the ram department, i don't know wich is good though, hopefully i can get atleast a gig.

                          I've heard good things from DDR, spelling?
