Ditto. In this system, look for a NVIDIA TNT2 card. Look for a card that is compatible with this older system, such as a 2x AGP if the system has an AGP slot.
 
If no AGP slot, a PCI can be used, but on some systems, you need to set the bios to use PCI over the onboard. Consult the manual on this issue.
 
As I mentioned in your other post thread, yea old Cirrus Logic (which is probably what you have onboard) is giving you the headache.
 
Correct me if I am wrong.
