Got an old PC that I only use for internet access. Video Card just gone on the Fritz (cheers guys for diagnostic help) so looking for an old Video card. Card was an 8mb Hercules so looking for similar spec.
Anybody can help?

PCI or AGP ?

I have an old v basic early Riva TNT (AGP) which is 8mb I think or an old 1mb Diamond Stealth PCI

Welcome to either for a £10 + postage ?
