No, not the X1600 Pro, that's pretty pansts in all respects. Get these instead: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102601 OR http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102483 The top card will power through the said game The second card will steamroller the game into oblivion.
@Sammorris, you have listed 2x PCI-E cards, when he has already said that he needs an AGP card. Hence the chioce of card at a low cost gets harder. Hence the cards I listed. An AGP version of the X800GTO comes in at $58 more. Maybe Hellraise needs to give max figure to spend?
Whoops sorry, I'm answering too many threads. AGP versions of those two can be found, albeit at inflated prices. How much can you afford hellraise?
i feel i am driving u guys crazy ..... i would like to go cheap ..i dont care if its pci or agp.i have 3 games now that wont play.anyway please post some from somewere no more than 70 bucks so i have a idea and thanks again.....(with prices)
Maybe look at a 9600 Radeon Otherwise your looking at an FX5600 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102407 $72 If you look on the video card section on Newegg, you can select to view cards between $50-$75 only. Here is a link to some tests on the cards you are likely to be looking at for your budget. http://compreviews.about.com/od/multimedia/l/aaSapphireR96P2.htm http://www.digit-life.com/articles2/radeon/r9600-2.html P.S. Don't go for PCI the transfer rate is far below AGPx8

Whilst those two may both solve the PS1.1 issue, neither are much cop for playing recent games, they're very old cards.
u say the one that is not stock will not play the games if i take it and put it in my compaq? the non stock one must be this one >>>>>>>>>>>>>>GeForce4 MX 4000 (Microsoft Corporation) thanks again.
The MX4000 and Riva are both old GPUs, the 4000 may support 1.1 but it's not going to fetch a good frame rate in modern titles.
thanks so you say it aint going to work?anyway i look in the pc one is an after market card could u please tell me which one is stock ?thanks again
The MX4000 will be aftermarket, but it's still an old PCI card. The card may run that game OK at low settings, but it may not run other games. As an interim you may find that the card runs well, but let's just say you won't catch it playing Doom 3 and the likes.
here is some games i would like to play using that MX4000 >thegodfather>ubersoldier>raILROADPIONEER.NONE OF THESE Will work with the Name S3 Graphics ProSavageDDR .thanks for all your help sam.and i dont have any specs on these games or boxes ..
The 4MX isn't compatible with the godfather (so neither is the riva or s3) The 4MX will play railroad pioneer, though not at high settings. (Not at all with the riva or s3) For Ubersolider, most cards are out of the question including yours. For ubersoldier I'd recommend you get an X800GTO or faster card for AGP. You'll also need 1GB of RAM. Your processor should suffice, but that'll hold you back to medium detail.
X800GTO good, X850XT better. That's about as far as you can go with AGP but if you can aford the X850XT you should be able to play Ubersoldier pretty well as long as you have enough memory.
thanks anyway i put this game on friends stock dell worked fine i wonder what stock card in there did the trick
Ubersolider? Must be a reasonably capable card then, as you've seen integrated graphics aren't going to cut it.
