replacing videocards, does the Dell Dimension 4100 have an AGP slot or
strictly PCI ? my guess is PCI only

any suggestions for a 128mb RAM videocard?

I installed a GeForce 128 PCI card in my 4100, then found
out it had an AGP card installed. I returned the PCI and got
the AGP and everything was fine.

my bad.
just checked the system with aida32 and it reports the following
(currently installed card)
nVidia RIVA TNT2 Model64 32mb memory

Bus type AGP

this is what I planned to replace it with as long as it runs on a
