is there any way to convert my PCI slot to PCIe slot ?? Does no other brand Graphics card will b compatible with my system??

You have to change your whole motherboard for that. There is no way to replace the PCI slot witout changing the Motherboard. This two buses are too different for the signals to be readily converted. Buy a good Motherboard which having PCI-E slot.

It is not possible to convert a PCI slot to PCIe. The PCIe comes in the newer version of mother board. There is only one solution. If you want to use a PCIe compatible graphic card then you will have to replace your mother board. And for a PCI graphic card look for Catalyst 3D card. It is a PCI graphic card which will work with your mother board.

The integrated graphics that come with a lot of the newer motherboards is actually far better than a PCI video card. For instance, I was able to play Doom 3 on medium settings on a board with the Nvidia 6150 graphics chip (on-board). Yet, a 6200 PCI video card could only play it on low settings on a lower resolution. The performance of the 6200 PCI card was much worse than the 6200 PCI-express card. Much worse.

I have to tell you that I know from experience that PCI graphics cards blow. The interface between the card and the PCI bus is just too darn slow to transmit data efficiently enough for high quality gaming. I would be very weary of getting an expensive PCI video card. I think the best one made is a 512 MB 8400 GS. However, my guess is that the performance would still be awful simply because the bandwidth is too low to utilize the GPU or memory of that card. There would be no point in getting that (if you could find it, which is doubtful).

PCI 1 is a real loser for gaming.

Albatron 8600 GT.

This is allegedly the most powerful PCI video card on the market. It is the Albatron 8600 GT PCI card. I cannot concieve of how it could actually be that good considering that it runs on a PCI bus. But here it is:
