    vitalForce - Welcome to the Board :)

    No way of I know of to fit a PCIe card to a PCI board. No adaptors available AFAIK, so a new mobo is the only route.

    If you only have PCI slots then your computer, sadly to say, is far, far behind the technology to support a PCI-E video Card. So much so in fact that you'd end up building an entirely new machine in order to use it.
