all my plans are on stop till i find out
I'm not totally sure what you're asking - but i think we need to know the make and model of the new motherboard your getting.
Basically, get one with a PCI-express slot - i imagine it would be hard to get one without.
Your present card is either an AGP or PCI-e - do a 'dxdiag' or look in 'device manager' it should tell you what type of card you have.
