I bought a game, The sims 3. I installed it, but it won't play because it says that my video card isn't supported or something like that. So now I need to buy a new video card.....but I don't know what I need. I've heard talk about PCI...or AGp slots and what not. I have no clue what these are or what my computer has or needs.

Here is what is required to play the game...

I have this computer with XP

Although I'm not exactly sure its the same as mine.....

This is what it says on the front of my computer:

340 Intel Celeron D Proccessor
512 MB PC2700 DDR SDRAM memory
160GB 7200RPM ultras DMA hard drive

I had an Nvidia video card put in it awhile back, but apparently that one isn't supported now.....

Can you recommend a video card that is reasonably priced??

Any other info you need to know??
