Like I posted to you privately....you probably will be fine.
Buy the monitor as long as it has a VGA input. Worse comes to worse you have
to buy a video card and or a power supply. Both of which will cost you less
than $100 at newegg.com
This is my business, so I hope I know what I am talking about.....

Subject: Re: [Shop-talk] computer (in shop) question
thanks guys for the advise... and the monitor offers... I'm wanting to
upgrade for better picture quality and to regain some desk space.. My 19"
viewsonic is (nearly )as big as a smartcar. My further digging says my
mother board supports VGA and my max resolution under settings on desktop is
1600x1200... so I bet I'm looking for a new video card, possibly a power
supply then the monitor.... all totalled... close to the price of a new
computer or at least half... The system is 7 years old and functioning
fine but do you put that much cash in a used machine that the new 'green '
czar might outlaw next year :-)
my guru son will be in town this weekend and I'll let him diagnose/recommend
also... I used to be literate...but nowadays my clock speed is too slow...
later
John
