Since he didn't supply specific model number we can't be 100% sure but
I'll bet that the system has an inetgrated motherboard and the onboard
Video is AGP but there is no separate dedicated AGP slot.

I've seen plenty of motherboards like that, usually entry level business
desktop systems. Onboard AGP is plenty good for a business desktop.

You could also stop thinking of computers only used as toys and figure out
why anyone would need an AGP port for a server? Those are normally delivered
with 8MB of memory on the video card.

There is no "normal" for servers. And the fact is its very doubtful you
could find a motherboard for sale that doesn't support AGP, you may find one
with out an AGP slot, but the onboard video will be AGP.

I think I did a bad job to say what I wanted to. The point was that a Server
don't need more out of a video card then to be able to install the software.
That's all.
