That is a quality card from a quality Brand. I am sure you will get tons of 'get this card instead' posts, so this one isn't going to be that. I say get it and you will be happy as long as you don't expect to get top performance on newer games. If that is what you want, please post again clarifying what you are looking for and your budget.

One this I do notice is that you have 1.5 GB DDR memory, that might be the source of a bottleneck as Vista is memory hungry. I would recommend spending some $$$ to get at least 2 matched 1GB sticks of memory.

Please fill out your system specs using the 'User CP' link so we can help you better.

Getting a dedicated video card like that 2600 will fix that
