This is a great card for old computers with 250 watt psu's. Works fine with windows aero, and makes games playable on older compters. My old Dell Optiplex GX280 Minitower turned into a gaming station with this card and was amazing with aero. i recommend updating your BIOS before installing this card, and checking your psu, and making sure your ram in nice and tight. Great card, buy it. Also has to vga ports for dual monitors, and 1 s-video out

well I have a Older E-machine T1842 that is nice but outdated. I didn't want to spend a lot on a card and have it not work in my computer. From the specs this one fit the ticket.The Price was right and it was direct x ready. When it arrived I popped it in and bang no screen. Forgot to reset the bio for pci and resolution.I got that working by uding safe mode to insall and thought I was good to go till I ran a game , no Direct X 3d .I checked the internet and found many with this problem. but no answer. Then I went into the nvida control Panel and reset the screen refresh rate to a lower rate, after disabling the mother board graphic driver. The software rewrote and I got great games.If you are not a nerd, I would let someone who is install this card for you .It is a great buy and worth the trouble I love it. It is a Great Upgrade for a older computer I am a happy gamer now.if you are going to install yourself I would print this .

I wanted to upgrade my old HP Pavilion desktop to run Windows 7 and the only item that was not compatable was the built in graphics card. I searched the internet for something inexpensive so I could run Windows 7 with the Aero themes. I came across this PCI graphics card and thought the price was good. I checked other sites and some wanted $80-$100 for the exact same card! I order thru Best Buy and had the card in a few days! Installation was really simple and no problems at all!
