You're not going to be able to do much with the system you have listed...

The second card isn't much worse than the top, but neither of them will provide very good performace for you. However, they are about as good as it gets for your PC(limited to PCI)

HP.com says your PC can hold a max of 1GB RAM.

If anyone would like to double check what I post, here's the info on the computer.

i was thinking that is what you would say... well thank you anyways might as well use this one for the internet and build my own system and good parts that i could save for my build... and can my friend take my hd's and erase them totally then reinstall xp pro and be at factory status???
 
no i dont. what about the restore disks from a similar computer very similar. or a totally different computer???
 
your harddrive is an ok size, you need ram. cheapest money can buy is around £30 a stick for 512.
2x512=1024=£60
graphics... an ATI X1600 will do in 256, thats about 60 squid
and £80 for a new P4 processor. assuming the motherboard supports it. motherboards are dirt cheap however for the non-amazing ones, look at my earlier post about a website miss pricing, i got a very high performance motherboard for £30. your £200 is easily reachable, dont listen to these goons. ill even give you websites where you can find these prices.
