Thanks HH. I'm kinda glad 'cause I was stretching the truth with myself
anyway about thinking I could afford (or even need) the card. So
knowing that I'd need a new power supply settles the issue easily.

Thanks again,

1. No. Your power supply is 200 watts.
2. If you mean AGP 2x compliant, yes.

I'm thinking about getting a new graphics card for the Presario 5000
5WV254 with Windows ME that I purchased in November 2000.

There are two of the card's requirements that I'm not sure my PC meets
and I'm wondering if anyone can tell me:

(1) How to determine the wattage of my PC's power supply? (The card I'm
looking at requires a minimum 250W power supply.)

(2) How to know whether or not the UWave motherboard in my PC is "AGP
2.0 or higher compliant"?

Thank you!
