Well, the BIOS probably tells you about your system support on boot. As to 
determining the requirements of the card; try a Google search for the model 
number of check the manual or manufactuers web site. As to upgrading: 
new mobo, new CPU, same disk, ethernet, case (possibly). Voila. Faster, 
more memory, and no changes to the installed software. At all. Same disk. 
Same disk geometry. Same ethernet cards.  *shrug* I did this to dagon.rcpt.to  
when I had to rehouse it. Took about 10 minutes to renovate, booted with no 
worries...
