1. Yes open the case and look for brown port and insert the card in it .
2. OK ... a simple Google search would answer 99% of the questions at this site. Now, with that off my chest - here is the answer: http://www.buildeasypc.com/hw/howto/instgraphics.htm
3. Its not hard at all. Make sure the PC is turned off then simply put the card into the AGP Slot, you can identify that through google images. Make sure it is inserted correctly and pushed in fully. Brown AGP Slot: http://content.answers.com/main/content/img/CDE/MBOARD.GIF Start the pc, insert the cd that came with the graphics card and install the drivers. Hope this helps.
4. yes. open the box... do not stand on carpet, be sure everything is unplugged. take the one screw out that holds the old card. slip the new card in, forcefully without getting your hands all over it (not difficult), screw the one screw back in place. plug it all back in and turn it on! be sure to install your drivers (on the cd the card came with) have fun! (good luck finding an AGP card; kinda old technology)
