BTW, your English is just fine.
A 266 MHz Celeron is very slow and will not be able to use
the newest graphics cards advanced features and speeds.
For instance, Tiger Direct [
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/Category/category_slc.asp?CatId=1029 ]
is selling Intel Celeron 366 socket 370 CPUs for $5.97 US,
these are very old technology, as is the socket 370 mobo
[motherboard] . You might be able to upgrade your present
mobo BIOS and install a faster Celeron or PIII for modest
cost. But it might be a better use of your money to buy a
new mobo and CPU. You can buy a newer design mobo with
on-board graphics that are as good as many lower or middle
performance cards and an AGP slot for future upgrades. You
would need to be aware that newer mobo and CPUs may also
require modifications to your power supply since newer Intel
CPUs require a second 4-connector 12 V power supply.
I don't know, because I haven't checked Intel's website, but
the old Celeron 266 may not support the more advanced
graphics.
Before you buy a newer graphics card consider the whole
system must be compatible:
do you have a big enough power supply to run the system when
you add components;
will the old CPU properly provide the instruction set for
the video card;
what upgrades that you might buy to fit the old mobo could
be used with a newer system later?
Bottom-line is that you may need a considerable number of
hardware upgrades to properly run the newer software,
everything from hard drives (old drives are just too small
for many of the newer applications) to the power supply.
Consider what you want to do with the computer, 3D drafting
or games have different speed requirements but may need the
same rendering. Then decide what system you need and whether
an upgrade or a new system is needed.
Good Luck

| Thanx very much.
| I shall think on this.
