    Ok, all I'm running off of right now is a shitty intergrated Intel 82810E graphics controller. I know this is a long shot, but is there a good graphics card, say, one that will let me play Halo, NFSU, etc..., that will plug into one of my PCI slots?

    Hmm, I wasnt seeing anything that high.

    Looks like your looking at a 5200, or a 9200SE.

    No, the PCI express will not work for todays PCI slots...

    The 5200 in a PCI slot will not play Halo very well I wouldnt imagine. What are your other specs?

    A new mobo might be your best bet.

    it might be able to play halo on lowest specs, but definately not nfsu...i'd recomend getting a new mobo and processor, but if ur ram is sdram you are also going to need ddr ram. id recomend a gigabyte motherboard and a 2500+ if your on a budget, the 2500+ can be easily overclocked to 3200+ speeds, but id worry about overclocking later...
