looking here http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/genericDocument?lc=en&cc=us&docname=c00032475
it looks like it will only take APG cards.
i use belarc advisor to find syste info then google the board make to find the specs. belarc is free and from here http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html

Easiest way without looking in the case would be to use a programme like Everest to find out what motherboard you have, then google it and it will tell you

Dont worry if you can only use AGP, theres some pretty high spec ones available
