What you need to do is open the side of your computer and identify what kind of expansion slot you have on your motherboard - PCIe looks like this, AGP looks like this and PCI looks like this (for the PCIe slot, the x16 version is the one you need).
Now, for most Steam games you'll only need about a 1GB graphics card to run them on at least medium performance settings.
If you have a PCIe slot, I recommend something like this (UK) or this (US).
If you have an AGP slot, I recommend something like this (UK) or this (US) (I know these are 512MB, but it's difficult to find anything higher in memory for an AGP slot at a reasonable price - most Steam games should still run fine on this card, but maybe with slightly lower performance settings!).
I really doubt your PC is so old that it uses PCI graphics, so I won't list any PCI graphics cards here :)
When it arrives, it's a simple case of clicking the card into the corresponding slot on your motherboard and screwing it into the back panel of your computer. Then, plug your monitor into the new graphics card, install the necessary drivers and you're good to go!
Good luck!
Sometimes, there's an extra cable to connect for a fan, but I don't think this applies with any of the cards I've linked you to :)
Looks like this one would probably do.
PM me your address, or add it and then send me your Amazon wishlist.
AGP is definitely limiting. See if you can confirm that it only supports AGP.
If that is the case, you could upgrade to a GeForce 6000 series card since those are supported by the 304 driver series and do come in AGP. A GeForce 6200 AGP 8x card isn't too expensive and should work. Amazon and Newegg have it.
