Alot of OEMs 3-4 years ago sold budget level cheap systems with no AGP and just regular PCI. Why they did this is anyone's guess, becuase the motherboards sold with these systems HAD the AGP support in the chipset and the wiring and spot for it on the motherboard. Simply the physical slot itself was lacking, but electronically, it was all there. They skimped on the slot itself. I wonder how much they saved doing that? Nothing?
Here are your options short of a new PC. Remember, you need PCI only, NOT PCI-Express. These are somehwat in order from best to worst, although all are low-end. They will be expensive considering the performance they give.
ATi Radeon X1300
nVidia GeForce 6200
nVidia GeForceFX 5500 (just an overclocked GeForceFX 5200)
nVidia GeForceFX 5200
Anything lower would barely be better than integrated.
