Hi and welcome to ExTS

 

Your Processor is 2.8GHz - better than the 2.2GHz required.

 

If this is your motherboard:

You have 1 PCIe slot available.

Take a look here:

You don't say which card "gave up".

Depending on what this was - you may need to upgrade your PSU to power any new card.

this is the pc im talkin bout

the old g card tht gave up was a 7200 le think

Your motherboard is as I posted above.

See here:

My previous post is correct.

 

Your PSU is only 300Watt.

 

If you upgrade your Video Card ( depending upon what you select ) the PSU will need upgrading too - to something like 500 - 600 Watt.

Compaq says you had this if you had a card and not integrated graphics.

 

GeForce7500LE

1 - VGA

2 - S-Video (and Composite Video using including SV-to-CV adapter)

3 - DVI

• Interface: PCI Express x16
   
  
• Maximum resolution:
  
  • VGA: 2048x1536x32bpp @ 75Hz
     
    
  • S-Video & Composite Video: up to 1024x768
     
    

   

  [*]Onboard memory: 256 MB

as my onboard card is crap.

 

lookin to spend 40ish pound n i no ill prb need a new psu

[KenB]

n i no ill prb

This is not a phone !

 

The motherboard supports upto 4GB - your game suggests 4GB.

If you havn't got 4GB then you would need to upgrade this too to comply with the specs in your first post.

 

The suggested card from your first post can be bought here:

You will not get an equivalent one for half the price.
