Well if you want to upgrade your video you will need to disable the on-board video (via jumper or in the bios) and then buy a PCI video card. There is many many great PCI vid cards on the market. Just depends on what you want and how much you want to spend. (personally I like the 3dfx cards such as the Voodoo3 in PCI format)

Hi,
the 530 can't disable its integrated VGA. Instead, it's usable in multi-headed mode when another VGA is in a PCI slot. BIOS should let you choose whether the integrated AGP or the add-on PCI VGA is to become the primary display.
Why update anyway? If 3D is too slow, add a voodoo2 (runs fine with the 530), and 2D should be good enough for anybody with up to 1600x1200.
