If you jump into your motherboards BIOS, there should be no options for AGP setup; alternatively, open the case and read the silkscreening on your MB slots....; or go the the MB manufacturers website.

WHat is your current graphics card?

genrally a PCI-E slot will have a sort of...Release mechanisum on the right hand side of the slot...either a pull/push leaver or a pull/push pin sort of thing.

Or like mdd1963 said, try the mobos website or google the mobo + specs

E.G. Asus p5KPL/1600 Spec


usually gets you some resualts for about 1 minute of work =D
