How do you determine which one you have....PCI or APG.....If my resource summary says PCI bus...does that mean I get a PCI video card? :-|

Hi SuzieQX2,
If you can't get it sorted out thru resources..etc.
just remove the case & look at where the card is plugged into the motherboard. You can see examples at my website. Be sure to follow all safety precautions - POWER OFF & POWER CORD DISCONNECTED from computer..BEFORE you open the case.
I'm sure you'll figure it out quickly.

You will have more than one PCI slot and only one AGP. AGP will also be much larger and brown.

See the rear of case. If ur VGA port place at the 1st or 2nd slot, then that your PC use AGP ;). Maybe it unexactly but most of case are right :)
