Can I upgrade my computer to this 512 MB AGP graphics card without any problems?

Heres the link:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102073

Here are my system specifications:
Compaq Presario
An Intel Pentium 4 Processor - 2.53 GHz
1.49 GB ram, and 1 Gigabyte of that was store bought
Windows XP SP 1 Version 2002

I'm wondering if the existing system power supply is enough to feed the new video card if I upgraded it.

The geeksquad router is protected by a password when I try to log into their wireless internet. My Aunt has the router in her room, but the password is not on the bottom. My Aunt is able to use her wireless internet, but because I don't have the password I am not able to. When we go onto her laptop, the password appears as black dots. Is there a way to decode it so I am able to plug it into the geeksquad password area on my laptop? My laptop has wireless but I need that pass key thing from geeksquad. Is there somewhere else I can get it? My aunt says that Geeksquad will charge you $70 for them to help you over the phone.

PLEASE HELP...it is boring waiting to go on the internet when I have a perfectly good computer that is just 5 or 13 characters away from the World Wide Web

My motherboard P4P800E have problem! can someone help me? Means that one memory channels (the blue slots) ist broken. To be exact, I can't get my 2 memory sticks run in dual mode, i.e. the second channel of the first pair (blue ones) is dead. However, my system works in the second bank, but I don't know if it is still in dualmode, as the first pair is supposed to be installed in the falty slot.

Alrighty, I followed the steps found at http://www.communitymx.com/content/article.cfm?cid=59334 to install phpdev, which includes apache, mysql, and php. Now however, I am ready to start coding in PHP, but I don't know where to save my files! I have tried saving them in the phpdev folder and the Apache folder, but I still can't view my "test.php" file! I have looked on other websites and they say to save it in my web server folder... where is that?

I just went to print something today for the first time since I came home from college. Under the list of printer choices was a new printer choice that I have never had before or used and it's called Angela's Printer. I don't know if I have a neighbor named Angela... If someone is hacking into my wireless would their printer show up? If not, why is someone's printer showing up on my comp?
