ok, im having some hard time figureing out if i have a agp or pci interface for a graphic card? right now i have a nvidia mx 400 64, i plan on upgrading it to a 128 when i get the money (week or two) someone told me i have a agp interface for graphic card and someone said i have a pci slot, im confused, i didnt know they were different, so if anyone could tell me what to look for when i go shopping for a graphic card, do i need to shop for PCI cards? AGP cards? or PCIe cards? i tried to search on other sites but found to come up clueless so i figure id ask where id get a straight final answer? thanks a ton!!! (Rob)

If you have an AGP slot, you want an AGP card.
If you don't have an AGP slot, then you need a PCI card.
If you don't know whther your system has an AGP slot or not, take the case cover off and look:

The brown slot on the extreme right is an AGP slot.
The other white slots are PCI.
I think on your T2385 there is no AGP slot.
