Want to put windows 7 on our old guest machine to hopefully make the networking easier - told I need a new graphics card but only have PCI ports, no AGP or PCI express. Only PCI card i can find is the PNY Nvidia 8400GS 512MB but some sites list it as requiring LGA775 - is this really going to make a difference? Anyone tried this card in a socket 478 system?

system spec:
HP compaq DX2000MT
socket 478 P4 2.8A (prescott)
2Gb PC3200 (though running at 333MHz sadly - BIOS is locked down and won't let me change it)
cack motherboard = Liteon NR146 (only has 3 PCI ports)
current graphics card = Nvidia FX5200
Lite-on DVD R/W
