Default Video card help (dell dimension 3000)

hello all.

I am looking to find a video card for a Dell Dimension 3000. The OS is windows XP and it has an intel Pentium 4 processor.

The video card just needs the ability to run dual monitors with 1600X1200 res. Nothing fancy because it will only be used for web browsing and poker.

any thoughts, and is there more information i need to include?

Thanks in advanced.

That comp doesn't have an AGP or PCI-E slot, meaning theres no place to put a video card. Short of putting some fringe PCI card in it, you're screwed. Sorry =/

To be fair as long as he doesn't intend to do anything requiring intensive 3d work a pci card should suffice.

I feel bad for him, but he does have some thin options like:
