Do u have a AGP slot........if yes then get a 5200 or recommended 6200...
If u don't have a AGP slot then get a 865 mobo+6200...

sorry USB graphics card is not possible...the bandwidth allowed be very low even lower than PCI.....
Graphics cards need bandwidth in GB/s...so USB cannot give more than 100 MB/s
Get a 5200 PCI version.....u will have to do a little hunting!!

I have a compaq presario SR1030IL and I don't know is there any possibility to add an extra graphics card.I didn't know my mobo model and when I ask the compaq customer care they said it is not possible.Can any one tell me how to identify is there any agp card slot or not.

in 845 chipset mobos i think there is AGP 4X slot , cards for AGP 4x are not available these days, so u can upgrade ur mobo to intel 865 and get a AGP 8x 6600 GT
