Welcome to PCHF

That's a PCI only board (no AGP) isn't it?

Yup, only PCI slots: http://www.thegreenhouse.us/th99/m/I-L/34787.htm

Well, you're looking for a cheap PCI graphics card...you could try EBay or http://froogle.google.com/froogle?q=...hics&scoring=p

...as for actually recommending one, well as power isn't really going to be great on this PC, go for as much RAM as you can afford on the card and also try and buy NVidia or ATI.
