My OLD, OLD, OLD Dell Dimension v333c has lost its onboard video. What's the cheapest video card that this computer can use? I'd like to have 1024x768 resolution, but will settle for 800x600.

Any ideas?

If you want something quick, just get the cheapest one in your local computer store. I think any new card will be able to handle 1024x768. Also check and make sure what kind of slot it has open for a video card (AGP, PCI).

If you have time, you can probably find one cheaper online.

UPDATE: The processor died so I took the DVD drive and hard drive and discarded the rest.

Sounds like the smartest thing to do considering. :)
