I bought a cheap bundle of old hardware of someone the other day. I mostly bought it for a GeForce3 Ti500 which it had, but it also had a GeForce 32mb, a TNT2, a Winfast (GeForce4 MX) card, and a few other bits and pieces.
One bit I can't identify, though. Neither Google nor Wikipedia are being very helpful......
It appears to be manufactured by "3D Power U.K.", and has "Powerful P68.1" written on it. Its AGP, with both key slots on it. Anyone have any ideas?

3D Power appears to make nVidia chipset-based cards, so I'm guessing its an nVidia card of some sort. Try checking what it says on the GPU maybe?
Unless I'm being a foolish fool, wouldn't that mean removing the heat sink? It's stuck on with what looks like pretty ancient heat sink adhesive; I don't rate my chances of getting it off without wrecking the thing.

Linkage This is the only product of theirs ive found upto now.
The company probably went bust or got bought up.
http://www.3dpower.net/ Their official website, looks like they stopped paying for the domain.
That looks like the company, but its not that exact card. Progress, though

Well if its old enough it might not even have one.
Have you tried installing the drivers and seeing what it detects it as?
Not yet. Might try that next, if I can't figure it out.
