I'm running XP SP2 with Intel 82845G graphics card. How do I upgrade to an Radeon or nVidia card? Or, is there an Intel equal to one of those?

Many Intel cards are onboard. The problem you may have is that you may also not have a slot. If you do have an AGP or PCI slot, you can disable the onboard card in your BIOS, plug in the new card, install drivers and you are all set. If your not familiar with any of this, check your manuals and see if the card is onboard and if a AGP slot is available. If you can tell me your specific information, I can look into it. Sorry for the late response.

I forgot to answer, no there is no Intel even close to ATI or Nvidia. Intel has been a joke in 3d cards for many, many years. They can usually display fine, but typically show tearing in DVD's and most 3d accelerated games can be unplayable. I prefer Nvidia myself, just had better luck, better drivers and no hassles.
