My father has decided to get his computer back, and now I am getting a newer computer to replace my old 166 MHz machine. We have most things needed for a machine, keyboard, mouse, hard disks, cd and a:\ (disket?) -drives etc. Because of that, we are getting a raw machine without many extras.
In the mix we are gong to buy the suggested graphics card is Radeon 9200. I searched the forum, and found that Radeon cards do not handle OpenGL very well and that frames might be too low for the game to be playable. The problem is, I don't know enough about graphics cards to know what to choose instead.
I do not play much, and most games I play work even on my older machine (!), so I don't need anything high-end. On the other hand, buying something that is outdated now seems rather pointless.
In short, I need a graphics card that will run Dominions II and is not too updated to run next generation of OSs (

). I will be happy for any recommendations.
Thanks for your time! Waiting for your replies.
