Title: Video Card help
Post by: urobouros on January 12, 2005, 01:41:40 PM

I got the Apollo Devil Monster 3 ATI Radeon 9200SE AGP Video Card from ebay.  The problem is that I thought I had an AGP card already and, therefore, and AGP slot.  In looking at the manual, the current video card is an integrated AGP card.  The interior diagram doesn't mention an AGP slot.  Is it possible that I have an AGP slot and Dell didn't see the need to show it?  The diagram only shows PCI slots.  Am I screwed?  It's new in the box so I can probably sell it without a loss, or at least without a big one.  Any help is appreciated.

simple answer -- open the dell and see if it has an agp slot (different looking that pci) -- if it does, install the card.  If it don't, sell the card.
