You need to download a computer inventory program, such the
Bel Arc Advisor [free download at www.belarc.com ] which
will report such details as the make, model and serial
number of the mobo. You can then download the actual mobo
manual.
If you do have a PCIe slot, you can buy the PCIe graphics
card, I've never heard of after-market soldering in a PCIe
slot. If you posted the model of your computer or the mobo
details, that would be more useful than a picture, which
probably would not have the detail or resolution to read the
fine print on the mobo.



Right my computer is a emachines 5260 and this is what belarc said about
the mobo

Board: Intel Corporation D915GAG AAC87709-302
Serial Number: BQAG50605455
Bus Clock: 133 megahertz
BIOS: Intel Corp. AG91510J.15A.0707.2005.0110.1034 01/10/2005

Hope this helps.
