4700c Video Card
I've already searched the forums for 4700c video cards, but I'd just like to be sure about something specific to a new video card I ordered (and just received):
The GeForce FX 5200 card does not fit into the Dell Dimension 4700c. The instruction manual for the card says explicitly that "the [video card slots] may be black ISA slots to which you should
not insert your card". The 4700c has such slots, and, from what I see, no other. When I noticed this, holding the card in my hand, I felt like an idiot -- every time I had looked at my system specs, it had said that I had a chipset, never a video card. My question is, how could I install a video card onto my computer? The GeForce FX 5200, I've been told, is compatible with my specs, so this is somewhat disturbing to me. I was wondering if there were some sort of offboard expansion equipment, so that I wouldn't have to return my card and find another one.
Thank you in advance.
