Do you have a PCI-e slot attach to your PC now?
As far as I know, most PCI-e slots are x16 or 16x. This figure actually stands for transfer speed and not the physical number of slots you need to have. The older AGP slots have a max transfer rate of x8.
So, if you already do have a PCI-e slot in your PC, chances are its x16 or 16x.
Hope this helps.

The only way is to get a new motherboard, sorry.
