Upgrading video card in Lenovo H210 Desktop?

Hi..I have a Lenovo H210 desktop computer ( I dont how to find the kind of card as I dont know where to look). I am looking to upgrade the video card as images stick and the comp crashes if I have multiple images up. Its about 3 years old and I use it solely for websurfing. Can I upgrade it and if so is there any particular card I should get?? I don't need a gaming card just a good quality vid card for the purposes I stated when I have multiple screens opened. Thanks..|||Something like this mid range card should be more than enough for your needs: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as…|||Since you don't need a SERIOUS card.

The first is used for multimedia/minor gaming. The second can be used for multimedia too, but is better suited for modern games. You won't be able to play modern games on high with the cards, but that doesn't matter since you said you aren't a gamer. You don't have to get that brands (just my favorite), but just make sure you get Geforce 240, 9800, or 250. Anything above that (260, 460, etc) is when you are starting to get too the "serious:" gaming cards.



P.S. Make sure you look at the Power requirements. 240 needs around 300w and the 9800 needs 550w. It says 350w on the site, but on the box it says 550w. At least it did when I last seen one.
