Retro Gaming rig

[Shorty7778]

So im looking at old games i used to play and i run across Lego Rock Raiders, and now want to start playing all my old games again.

 

I have a windows xp along with service pack disks (also have 98 and 2000 lol)

 

now all i need is hardware, i originally played these games on a slot type Pentium computer running Windows 98(Yes slot type gateway that ran perfectly until i took it apart in 2010)

 

I have a Pentium D 3.2ghz and d945psn intel board with 4gbs ddr4 in one of my old rigs, now im looking for a graphics card that will work with games back to 1998.

What would be the best card to use that is compatible with Windows 98 and XP  and what other hardware should i be looking for to complete this gaming rig?

I have some nice SCSI gear...Adaptec U320UW and a ton of 68pin SCSI 10k hard drives.

Perfect for the retro rig

 

As far as a video card? Dunno, a GT 9800 perhaps?
