I am guessing if your computer is old, it does not have a PCI express slot. My dell only has a PCI slot.

Your Dell only has open PCI slots; no PCI-express, not even AGP. So you're pretty much SOL. Time to buy a new computer.

SOS Trooper is right, your system has a intel 845GL motherboard, no PCI-Express slots, or even an AGP slot. You would have to do some major upgrades to get that card to work, and even then, your other components would hamper the card.

The best idea would be to start fresh. Good luck.
