==========================PROBLEM INFORMATION==========================

Problem Description: *

As you can see, I have got this humble graphic card installed in this
humble computer,
The name is 3D RAGE PRO but odd enough it apparently does not support
Direct 3D instructions.

I would like to UPGRADE/REPLACE THE GRAPHIC CARD.
Unfortunately, a current standard graphic card does not fit into this
classic desktop,
By any chance, would you know which graphic card can I replace current
one with?

In other words, which is the upper level regarding my existing card
still using
the same kind of connector for plugging in the computer?

Or maybe, better, can you kindly tell me whether there is a way to
INCREASE this card performance and/or its memory?

Steps to recreate the problem: *

Thanking you in advance for your support.
Julio.
