First, make sure you have an AGP port (it's usually above the PCI ports and has a different shape and color).
Second, what makes you say you need at least 128MB?
Third, I second the recommendation of the Radeon 9600 Pro.

You don't NEED 128mb; but in that price range you're going to get it anyway. No matter. Go ATi Radeon 9600 Pro, brother. I have one, and I love it.
