I just bought a Hp Pavilion a614n for $500 at Officedepot, but the motherboard dosn't have an APG slot, but the funny thing is that i can see the little pins and Skrewholes were the APG slot would mount on. Do you think that there is anyway that i could buy and APG slot and mount it onto my motherboard?
No apg

You could consider something like this: http://www.plinkusa.net/webpaptx-pci.htm
But it's better (and cheaper) to upgrade your motherboard.

You *might* be able to get it to work if the AGP settings in the chipset are just disabled and not "not-present" ... when you say "AGP settings are in the hardware/windows..." ... windows looks at the chipset to get the drivers and such. Also, dont 4get that windows isnt the only OS ... for it to be a "true" installtion, it'll also have to be detected by something like say, Linux
But it is possible that you have a board where the AGP is disable in BIOS and they physically removed but I would think that to be uncommon.
