Please fill out your profile with your PC's specs so we can help you better. Also, open your case and post a screenshot of or post the information on the PSU (Power Supply Unit) sticker. This is what a typical PSU sticker looks like. New video cards pull a lot of power so unless you have a good PSU, forget about getting a better card. In addition, post a budget and your exact location so we can recommend parts.

Thanks for the response...

I filled out the information I know about my system but I cannot locate the PSU information. I've opened my tower and don't see anything that resembles the sticker you posted...hmmm... it's a dell dimension 8300...it has whatever Dell put in it.

Okay, after digging deep, I can barely make out a sticker...I'll attach it.

you should think about getting a new psu since yours is only 250 watts

That's what I thought. Thanks!!!

try a NVIDIA GForce 8600 gts
make sure you install the drivers for it

that card only comes in pci-e and iml8agn only has an agp slot

You people ROCK!

The 250W PSU in the Dimension 8300 delivers 17A on the +12V rail, which is enough for a 7600GT like this one.
