It's not the card itself that you need to worry about, it's the type of connection it uses.
Check if you have AGP, PCI-E, or neither. Get the corresponding card, although if you have PCI-E or neither you'll need to make sure the card is for a PCI connection, if you have AGP you should get an AGP card, although a PCI card will work as well.

Yes, that card will work. It's a PCI slot card, and you only have PCI and PCI-E x1. That card is decent, but for running games at moderate framrates, that card is kinda dated. I would recommend the Visiontek Radeon X1300 PCI 256mb

This x1 PCIe card should run faster than PCI cards on the SLOW PCI bus:
