motherboard is a asus p4sd-la i believe the video is actually a video card because after opening the case it looks like there is one in the pci slot.

undo the screw that is holding the card in place & pull the card out so that you can clean the dust bunnies off it & see what the model & make of the card.
which one in this link is yours? http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/prodT...enter%20m000%20

Hey this is my friend and I told him to come here. Thanks for helping ddp.

He bought this desktop off of another friend who had no need for it after he bought a new computer.

If I remember right this was a custom built desktop that had Ubuntu (Linux I think) on it and was purchased at a pawn shop. So the best info we can get on this comp will prolly come from CPUZID.

We swapped parts into it and RAM, then installed windows.

I'm guessing since the slot the video card is plugged into is brown, its an AGP video card. I agree that pulling out the card and looking at it is probably our best way to identify it.

Also there is a chance different CPUZID versions might identify the graphics card right?

The latest CPUZ (1.5.5) identifies everything on my board except for my 2 RAM slots.

card needs to be pulled out of the computer as appears video card fan & heatsink is full of dust which is not good. it is an agp card which is better then pci & onboard. pull it out & see what is labeled on either front or backside of card. reason for asking for model# of the media pc is that the card might have came with the pc from hp so the drivers would be available from hp so need the model#.

So now he should dust it off and get the drivers from ATI for the Radeon 9550 256MB V/D/VO right?
