Please help.

i would go with a trusty Nvidia GeForce or ATI Radeon graphics card.

yes you can get one in stores, like best buy or something.|||The best way to see what type of video card you have is to turn your computer off and simply take a look. It will have a label on it to identify.
You can also tell via your OS, but this can be less reliable, especially if you're using some alternative drivers. For example, in Ubuntu, if you use certain restricted drivers for your video card, it won't identify the model correctly; it may get the brand name and the series number, but it may not be exact.
You can replace your video card by buying a new one that connects via the same interface (eg. AGP, PCIe). You should also make sure that your PSU can supply enough power to support your new video card. As long as the new one uses the same interface, replacing it is as easy as yanking out the old card and putting in the new card.
As for where to buy a video card, yes, you can buy them in stores, but you can find a better selection on the Internet. If, however, you are lucky enough to have a decent computer parts shop where you live, you can certainly check there first if you want. It may be more convenient for you.|||Your card will come with directions with pictures. It is actually very simple. You will be able to see which slot matches the plug bit on the graphics card when you look inside the computer.
Just make sure you disable the onboard driver before installing the actual card. But this will be included in your setup steps.
