What is the problem?
HI can you help please I have a Acer Aspire t180 Motherboard EM61SMEM61PM amd 64x2 3800 on xp I am about to upgrade the monitor to a 23 view sonic or similar and would like to get the best out of it I am told I will need a graphics card I have seen this one at a reansable price can you tell me if it will be compatible with this computer or can you recommend anything else Thank you Graphics card is EVGA GE FORCE GT 210 1024MN GDDR3 PCI windows xp support max gpu power 305w
Your system should run okay with that card, but I would advise that you upgrade your power supply as well. Look for at least a 550 Watt unit from a major manufacturer such as Antec, Chillmaster or Akasa. This will give you some headroom for further expansion and the PSU supplied by OEM are never very reliable in terms of power output claims. Enjoy your new view.

You should still upgrade your power supply to at least 550watts. If your present PSU fails it could kill your motherboard, graphics card and RAM.
