Graphics card stopped working

I've been playing battlefield 2 on my pc using the following video card:
256MB NVIDIA GeForce 7500LE

All of a sudden the card stopped working. It wont let the pc boot up. If I take the card out, the pc works fine. So, I guess the card's dead or something.

But anyway, I need to buy a replacement. Unfortunately, I'm a total noob and have no idea what to get. I dont know how video cards work. I'm only going to be using this pc to play Battlefield 2 only. Here is the official system req for bf2:

Video card must have 256 MB or more memory and one of the following chipsets:
NVIDIA GeForce FX 5700 or greater
ATI Radeon 8500 or greater

Whats the cheapest thing I can get that will get me going?

Thanks in advance!
