The PCI video card should work, but you may need to change a setting in your BIOS to recognize it. Enter "setup" when the computer starts, and look for a setting about video options. There is usually a setting indicating to seek an AGP or a PCI video card upon startup. NO! A pci video card will only fit into a pci slot in a motherboard. Likewise an agp will only fit into an agp slot. They are completely different. Both of these above answers are right and wrong. PCI and AGP are two totally different standards, but as long as you have an open PCI slot, you can use a PCI video card and opt not to use the AGP (Make sure to change appropriate options in your BIOS.) ==Answer == Yes you can use a PCI card where the slot is avaliable, but if your motherboard has a slot for AGP cards it is worth noting that the systemboard was designed with AGP in mind. It offers a system bus direct to the prossesor for faster unhindered communication.Running a PCI card on a AGP board may and probably will slow down your system performance.

Your usb plug on the computer doesnt work what do you have to buy to replace it?
It depends on what type of computer you are talking about. If it is a laptop, the USB ports are often directly connected to the motherboard, and replacing the USB ports alone is very difficult. If it is a desktop PC, again it depends on whether the USB ports are directly attached to the motherboard or whether they are on a separate card. If attached directly to the motherboard it is difficult to replace. Probably your best solution is to buy a USB PCI card. http://www.dabs.com/ProductView.aspx?Quicklinx=3ZRC&CategorySelectedId=11139&PageMode=1&NavigationKey=11139,48720000&InMerch=1 You can slot this directly into a spare PCI slot on your motherboard and very often the computer will automatically install it for you.
