No, it will not work for the reasons everyone else said, you have no PCI Express slot, and that card is PCI Express. BUT, they do make that card for AGP, it is harder to find, but I was able to find it here:http://www.mwave.com/mwave/viewspec.hmx?scriteria=AA65470
I would however check your power supply and make sure it is at least 400W before installing this card.

I in basic terms see the AGP version of the Visiontek ATI Radeon X1950 professional on newegg, no PCI show. The X1950 is a mind-blowing card. while it grew to become into first released on October 17 2006 it grew to become into interior the sub-$200 variety. i could advise getting a greater moderen ATI HD form. The X1950 professional will play all laptop video games decently in case you have sufficient potential to run it.

No, your computer has an APG slot, and a APG video card, the X1950 is a PCI-E (PCI Express, better then PCI normal, and APG) and will not fit in any slots inside your computer. You will have to upgrade to a newer motherboard.

No PCI-E Support. The highest you can go is a ATI X1650 for an AGP

This will run most of anything you will need for at least 2 years.

It should, but you will have to check if your computer has a PCI-E x16 slot. THey are the same color as a PCI slot, but are longer and have a clip at thew end. You may need to buy a new motherboard if you don't have the slot, or pick another AGP graphics card.
