You can't convert PCI to PCI-E, due to bandwidth and power differences. Don't waste your time with a PCI videocard, they aren't good for anything made in the last 3 years. Also, I'm not sure about getting a new motherboard, because you would also have to look at upgrading the Power supply. Not to mention the fact that the CPU in there is most likely using an old/budget socket, which puts a damper on any upgrading possibilities.
Lesson learned: Unless you fork out thousands of dollars, retail machines suck for upgrading. Your best bet is to build a new PC from scratch. If you don't know how, hire someone to do it for you. Jam it back in, in the dark.
