SOURCE: can we replace the video card in the emachine
Hi,
Yes, the computer comes with 1 agp 8x slot available. You want to look for video cards that are agp and 8x. Here's google's results for shopping for an 8x agp. When you get one, you will want to install it. If you haven't installed a component before go to HERE. and download the manual it will instruct you on how to open the case, but it won't tell you how to install the agp card. The expansion cards are the white plastic buses that face the back of the computer. You'll have to unscrew the one metal cover to allow the card to extent out to the back, and you will put the agp card in the brown bus next to the white ones. Don't put in the white ones, those are pci ports not agp. Once you get that done, make sure you screw the card down with the screw you took off the metal cover-plate, and then start the computer and put the cd rom in the drive. The rest it will walk you through.
Good Luck.
