Asus mother board video card needed

No the motherboard only supports pci express cards.

your power supply is at the edge, so i'd suggest going for 650W power supply. your mainboard will support the graphics card but as i said - you need better PSU

Hi, mother boards were designed with compatibilities with o/s or supported by windows version. If you still have the manual when you bought your PC, you can find what operating system supports the chipsets of your motherboard from lan card to sound card. If your lan card or video card is not supported with vista O/S then you can find the driver needed for it by browsing thru the internet, say if you have asus mother board, check the asus site at URL, http://www.asus.com, at asus web page you will find categories of menu, and a search box will be there and just input *********** board model say PJ41GT driver for XP. the search engine will provide you the right driver for downloading.

An alternative is to install a video card in the AGP slot, you may need to disable the on-board video in the BIOS.

Following graphics will work for you.

AGP 8X
ATI Raedon series video cards
NVIDIA geforce series cards.

Thanks

You ASUS mother board has 2 PCI slots.
1 PCI Express x16 <- this 1 is for video expansion
1 PCI Express x1

That's not the right model number of the board,that's the serial number. Go to the asus site for your answer after you find the model,usually by the graphics card slot

you would need a new mother board or change the graphics card

Put the model number in the search ares.

Hi rovin,
So you bought an XFX GeForce 256MB video card. You're board has 1 free AGP 8x video slot & 3 PCI (White opened slots).
You mention there is not slot for the new card. (What type of video card did you buy)? PCI-E, AGP or PCI?
The only slot you're board does not have is a PCI-Express.
Look in you're manual on page 1-7 for the location of the AGP video card slot.
If you bought the wrong card, exchange it for an AGP 8x or PCI.
The ASUS P5PE-VM uses a integrated Intel® 865G chipset with integrated Intel® Extreme Graphics 2 Technology, which uses you're system memory to function.
If you need a manual you can download it from Asus. Click on the link to open to the P5PE-VM download site.
