AGP= accelerated graphics port, it was designed for video cards since the PCI slot doesnt have enough "oomph" on bandwidth, basically its faster than PCI slots.
i would recommed you to have at least the GeForce FX5700 or the Radeon 9600 (not the 9600SE) which costs about $100-$130?.
if you want to know if you have an AGP slot, you could always open up your PC and look at the motherboard, the AGP slot is usually brown and somewhere in the middle of the board, a bit mis-alligned with the PCI slots (the white ones).
or if you dont want to open up your PC, you could download AIDA32 and it can detect if you have an AGP slot.
