Is that an nForce or nForce2 mobo, Brian? If either, it should have the
capabilities of the nVidia GeForce2 MX built-in.
I can't help much with graphic card recommendations, but, if you have

want to have a copy of Knoppix standing by, so you can at least use your
new PC while figuring out what's wrong with the graphics.
