Can you tell us what motherboard you have?

Maybe this will help you:

o wait i have a picture of it please tell me if its the black bar or the other white ones???

The long black one is a PCI Express x16 slot. The small one is a PCIe x1 and the two white ones are standard PCI slots.

 

[jasonxneo]

for the small pci-e x1 what things can go in there? are they for like graphics cards or something??

 

[Atomic Rooster]

No, those are for things like sound cards, wireless network cards, etc.

They do make some PCIe x1 video cards, but they really aren't worth the expense.

You could put a graphics card there. Unfortunately there's only a handful around and their counter part (as far as prices go) will easily outperform them. I'm still searching for the reason this slot was created. Less power consumption?
