Recommend me a cheap card for about £30-£40

I know its a small amount of money, but my dad (bless) is getting the hang of my old pc which has a ATI 9600XT graphics card which to me does the job,

but as he is now discovering the joys and woes of upgrading he fancies a new card - he doesn't play games but wants "the comfort" of having a better card

so any cards in the price range above which would be a step up? AGP only please

Thanks all
