Hi, There are two cards that I would recommend for your system, and they are the 9500GT HERE, and the 4650 HERE.
Inspirion 530s
Somebody once said: Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it, misdiagnosing it, and then misapplying the wrong remedies.
Anything more powerful if i have to i will upgrade the PSU but would like to keep the one that is in it, also is there any way to run dual GPU's on this comp. Not wanting to do it just wandering. Could i go with a new gtx 275 or a ati5850??

Hi, Anything more powerful, then you will need a new PSU. Also, if you want to add another graphics card for SLI mode, then your mobo will have to be SLI compatible, Ie have 2 PCIe x 16 and above graphics card slots.
Here is the system requirements for the 5850, you could use it if you upgraded your PSU, any ATX type PSU will do.
*Again your PSU will need to upgraded.
Now i am getting a mmdriver has stopped working error message, running vista 32 and came on after i did an update to the driver on my 3450 then it wouldnt let me overclock so i did a system restore so it would roll back the driver and am now getting this message any help????

Hi Bstngt, i dont know if you did this, but, when you upgrade your driver for youy ATI card, did you uninstall all ATI software first. Your old software may well be causing the problem.
If you have a decen 450w power supply, the 4850(which i own btw) is the beast that you want. $100 everywhere.
Yeah, I think you're going to want to look into replacing the PSU with a larger PSU-it needs to be quality, don't just look at the number. Antec is good. Then just make sure a card you're looking at will physically fit in the case. Not sure what kind of limitations that system might have.
