Inspiron 3268 additional cards?
I just got this computer and want to add additional (pci?) Card for firewire and dv capture but how do I do that? The blank slot sizes at the back dont look standard size.

This only has a PCIe slot. If you need FireWire you will have to have a PCIe card type. PCI will not fit.
I have a PCIe FireWire card installed in my desktop as I use it in my recording studio.
Although the documentation doesn't show it, this appears to be a slim case model and if that is true you will need a "low profile" PCIe FireWire card.

Just adding data to fireberd post. Below is a picture of the Inspiron 3268 motherboard slots (as shown in the online Inspiron 3268 Service Manual PDF) =
