Well because you have such an ancient computer upgrading is going to be tough. You are limited to PCI it looks like which would mean that this card would be the bare minimum needed to run two screens browsing the web ok. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814133364

Even with this it may lag considerbly because of the fact that the processor is only at 2.2 to 2.6 ghz which is extremly slow compared to todays processors.

Otherwise i would recommend a 430 gt but thats going to be severly bottlenecked by your processor so a 8400 gs would be the absolute fastest i would recommend otherwise its just going to waste.
