how to device manager?

Your computer motherboard will have both PCI slot and AGP slot

AGP (Accelerated Graphics Port) is used to hold the graphics card

while

the PCI slot holds the other cards such as network, sound etc

Start --> Control Panel --> System --> (Tab/Heading) Hardware --> Device Manager
