Hi,
Installing a video card is relatively easy if you follow these steps.
1. Open the case so you can see the motherboard.
2. If the computer has a video card in the long yellow slot, remove it carefully at this time. Unscrew the card from the back of the case using a philips head screwdriver. Be sure to press the small while lever at the back of the yellow slot to release the video card. If the existing video card has any power plugs connected to it, be sure to unplug them as well.
3. Once the old card has been removed, gently press your new video card into the slot. You should hear a slight click signifying that the small white level has locked the card into place.
4. Screw the new video card to the back part of the case to secure the card from any movement.
5. Attach any power cables that the video card may need.
6. Close case and turn on the computer.
7. Once the computer has booted, be sure to install your new video card drivers from the CD that came with the card or from nvidia's website.
It will not fit you do not have a PCI Express 2.0 x16 slot on your motherboard.

Insert the GTS 450 in the long yellow slot (the one below the short yellow slot). Connect the corresponding 6pin power cable from the power supply. Make sure the card is screwed in to the case.
