re: How do I find a video card that is compatible

Good video cards need a 600w power supply (generally)
Check your power supply, a sticker will tell you what it is.
A video card is easy to install. A new power supply will be a tad bit trickier.
Basically youd have to disconnect each power cable, unscrew the psu, screw in the new psu, add the gfx card to the PCI slot, reconnect each power cable, and connect the new power cable to the top of the gfx card.
sounds tougher and more overwhelming than it really is.

Only sticker I can find is on the power chord itself, and it just says 125 volt, 10 amp.
Guess I'll just get a video card, and try to look at the power supply when I open the case.
