You can still get a decent PCI video card, what do you plan on doing with the system, gaming? Or video editing?, or what. If you’re into gaming your SOL, but if you just want a better card you do have some options.
The Radeon 9200 comes in PCI, as does the NVIDIA 5200.
Let us know what you are looking to get out of this upgrade so we can try and suit your needs.

Also add more memory no matter what.
from the specs it looks like it has 2 slots for memory, and the configurations show that it comes with 256 or 512, I would hope that you have 1 stick of 256 not 2 sticks of 128. Open it and check if you can. The memory should be rated at 333 so that means pc2700. You can use a faster set but it will still only be clocked at 333, just don’t use a chip rated at anything slower then 333. I would recommend getting a stick of 512mb that will put you to 768 which is more then enough for normal people (I still run 512mb till my budget increases) as for brand, i like Kingston, I’ve never had trouble and they have a life time warranty.
