It looks like you only have pci slots - no PCIe or AGP slot.

This pretty much limits your video card selection to lower end cards. You'd be better off adding more memory.

You can upgrade it, you just can't get anything even remotely powerful. What you really should do is upgrade the entire platform because PCI video cards are expensive and weak. If you want to upgrade just your graphics, you're looking at the nVidia GeForce 6200 PCI version:

Your def gonna need a bit more ram just to support a decent card, and as they said above, your mobo wont support any good cards. probably be best off, upgrading to 2-4gb of ram.
