New Video Card
Hello all, I need a new video card for my comp. I have an HP a1540n with 2
gigs of ram, an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 4200+, and a NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE (which I want to upgrade). I run Windows Vista Ultimate 64-Bit. So I want to find a new video card that is compatible with my PC and OS. I am looking for one under $200 preferably NVIDIA, so if someone can find me the best for my money I would appreciate it. One more thing, my PC is still under warranty so I am reluctant to open it up to put that new video card in. Is there any way I can get a professional to put it in or something so it would still be under warranty? Or is the only way to put it in to void my warranty? Thank you in advance. |

There are Vista drivers for your 6150 card available at the NVIDIA Website.
If you think you need a better card it would help to now why or wht what functions and what types of slots you have available in your system.
