Sorry for eavesdropping...

But I have this exact same model pc, the only thing thats different is mine doesnt have a -b at the end.
I was unable to play tropico 3, kept on getting a message that said I needed a video card that was directx9 compatible and shader 3.0 compat so after reading parts of this thread I decided to buy a Geforce 220 off of ebay. It was new and only 50sum after shipping and I was hoping it wasnt powerful enough to force me to buy a new psu.
Anyways just got it in the mail today and went to install it but I think I might have done something wrong. When I turned the computer back on and tried to install the drivers, the only thing it would install off the disk was Nvidia HD audio, and the only vga driver that would install was the standard vga driver that I had just uninstalled to install the new one.
If anyone could walk me through on how to actually install this thing that would be awesome. I dont have the users manual anymore for the computer and all the how to sites Ive found tell me to remove the old video card, which I cant do since its integrated into the motherboard...
