Presario 4200NX video card by
Master Chief Mike
Can I install a normal 128MB AGP video card in my Compaq Presario
4200NX? The PC was a gift and I really could use more than 64MB of
shared video memory. Any help would be appreciated. I have not looked
inside one, but is there even an AGP slot available?
Thanks,
