From what I've been able to determine, your system does not have an AGP or PCI-E port for a graphics card. You would need to use a PCI graphics card (note: there is a difference between PCI and PCI-E and the two are not compatible).

In your case, I would probably recommend a Geforce 8400GS like one of these. Not too pricey for a low end card.

but it wouldn't be good for gaming, HD movies at most or very light weight gaming.

I also need to upgrade my T4010 with a graphics card (for Second Life - schoolwork). It requires either:
nVidia GeForce 6600 or better; or
ATI Radeon 8500, 9250 or better; or
Intel 945 chipset (mine is 865).
The machine's power supply is 300 WATT. Any suggestions?

Thank you.

Seems odd to me that Second Life would require a much better NVidia GPU than an ATI GPU, but whatever.

In your case, Danae, I'd probably recommend an ATI HD 2400 pro like one of these.
