Default How can I know that whether my computer has an AGP slot for AGP Graphics cards?

I have an Intel Pentium III 933 MHz processor. I first used PCI graphics card on it, but then it ran out, so I now, again went to market but there are no PCI graphics card there as PCI is quiet older system. But I don't know that do my computer have any AGP slot or not. Please tell me that how can I know that I have that. I ran dxdiag utility and in display panel, it says that AGP acceleration is enabled. Does it indicate that I have an AGP slot?I have installed Everest Corporate, but it still dont gives any information that whether I have AGP slot or not.

An AGP slot is usually brown and is above the PCI slots which are white. It is set off a little to the right on the motherboard compared to the PCI slots too.

Open your computer case, and see if there is any AGP slot like in this picture: (the brown one)http://www.totalsem.com/techforum/te...mage_3.jpgSome old computers may not have this slot.

Google "AGP" for an illustration of what one looks like.Then open your computer and see what sort of slots are on the motherboard. The AGP slot is longer and a different color.Chances are if your computer is fairly new it does have at least one.
