AGP Graphics card from the ark

[Quey_Quick]

Howsit guys

I need help here.

I have an old PC that my aunt asked me to have a look at.

PC posts and all. So I know all of that is in working order, the problem I suspect is that the screen is blank.

I suspect the issue lies with the AGP graphics card. Tried two different VGA cables and I know the monitor is fine as its my daily monitor.

TL/DR

Where can I get a AGP graphics card in the Midrand/Johannesburg region?

Sad to see this since I just threw out a old AGP card yesterday, still in the trash I think.

You'll probably have better luck finding a PCI card.

Why do you need an AGP graphics card? What is wrong with the default display adaptor?

I suspect it is the onboard that is at fault.
