More details please...
...what kind of Elitegroup?
Iam sorry i forgot to tell you its a elite K7S7AG.....i bought the nvidia G force 6200 but dont have the slot for it .... so i hope that helps ....thanks DiNgO
Which GF6200 you bought? PCI-Express???
This is wrong. Your Mainboard have only a AGP-Port, so you need a GK like this
Which is the best one? Look here
This is a Report about PCI-E GK but it doesn´t matter...
For which you use the PC? Office? Gaming?
For Office, a 6200 GK ist okay, for playing look about a 6600GT...
@aragon75:
Sorry, but Bullshit!
@dingodave:
If it is a K7S7AG, it has an onboard SIS graphic-controller AND it has NO AGP or PCIe Slot!
Look at this:

Your K7S7AG is for Office-Use and bad for Gaming...
Do you have a Athlon XP CPU? (or Athlon, or Duron?)
How much RAM?
It will be PC2100 RAM >> 266MHz
Download "EVEREST" from Lavalys to detect the components of your system and post it here...
Then we will see, what we can do for you...
Then you could only make it with a PCI-Grafic-Card or with a new mainboard.
Greetz!!
yes its a SIS mainboard with on board sound from what i can tell it only has pci slots i have 384 ram and its an athlon (dont laugh) 1.8 but the bastard that sold it to me said it was a 2.4 ......i should have looked ....so to change the mainboard would cost me too much at the moment ....and all i want to d is play games :-))....so come on guys HELP me
The K7S7AG has a SiS Xabre200 AGP8x onboard graffic card with 64MB RAM. I don't think that a faster PCI-graffic card exist. Use the mainboard how it is.
Greetz!!
@dingodave:
What Athlon is it? 1.8GHz or 1800+ That's not the same!
If it is a 1.8GHz, it is called XP2200+ and it's as fast as a Pentium 4 2,2GHz...
For Gaming, your CPU is absolutly OK! You need RAM and a good Graphics Adapter...
Graphics Adapter >> means another mainboard >> very simple
If you want to spent less money, you can't buy a nforce board.
You've to take a VIA KT400 or KT266, for example.
Give the GF6200 back to your dealer and let him give you the money back...
How much did it cost? 80,- EUR?
>>Your budget is 80,- EUR
Sell your board with 384 MB RAM on eBay (without CPU and Cooler)...
>>I think you'll get 30,- or 40,- EUR for it.
Now you have about 110,- EUR for RAM, Board an a Graphics Adapter!
Let us see:
Used Gigabyte, MSI or Asus board:
Examples...
KT266

Take 20,- for the KT266 or 35,- for the nforce (within shipping)
RAM:

>> 33,50 EUR (within shipping)
Now we have max. 70,- EUR >> 40,- for Graphics...
Graphics (AGP):
You have to take a older one with 128MB, but good quality.
A Geforce 4 is faster than "lower" Geforce 5 cards.
Example:
http://cgi.ebay.de/GeForce-4-Ti-4200-128MB-DDR-SRAM_W0QQitemZ8743981359QQcategoryZ32195QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
http://cgi.ebay.de/Albatron-GeForce-4-Ti-4200-P-Turbo_W0QQitemZ8744056143QQcategoryZ32195QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
or a new ATI Radeon 9250 or used 9600...
For 110,- EUR you CAN play games like HL2 or FarCry - but of course not on "high solution" details...
...for that you need high performance gamer pc for 1000,- EUR...
Ups, i look at this: http://www.ecs.com.tw/ECSWeb/Products/Productsdetail.aspx?detailid=315&MenuID=16&LanID=9
and see "AGP8x"...
Sorry, who to read can is clear in the adventage (wörtlich übersetzt) ;-))
