I'm running home basic but I decided that for what I use the computer for I
don't need a better quality picture. I don't do any gaming just regular
surfing, email news group etc.

Depends on how you want to use the video card. 512 is preferred, but, you
may never need the additional video ram if you don't play games. Also make
sure that the p/c's power supply is up to the task. Many of the higher end
video cards need more power than a low end power supply can provide.

I've got an older 128mb card here and it's just fine - but I'm running
Home Basic too g.

Mines a dell and it doesn't have one. I found them doing a web search
but
they say 256 MB or 512 MB. How do I know which one I want?

This is probably a stupid question but is there such a thing as a HDMI
card
for a computer so you can plug your HDMI monitor into it?

Most any decent video card has the normal connector and also an HDMI
connector.
