   Before I give up on this eMachine, I wonder if an alternate video like   
   a video card in its PCI slot would work.  It might be crazy, and   
   probably is.  I have two available PCI slots in this T3104 mobo.   
      
   Anyone know of a source for a compatible and cheap video card? Thought   
   someone might know.  I'd be afraid I'd buy one that wouldn't fit the   
   PCI slot.   
      
   Be gentle.
