Unfortunately, your video card is not going to fit that motherboard. There's no PCI to PCI-Express adapter as that would defeat the object of having a faster data throughput slot which the video card would naturally fit into.
The other bad news is that you need to check the power output (in Watts) of your PSU (Power Supply Unit). Unfortunately, Dell have a tendency to put underpowered PSU units in many of their computer systems.
Some even more bad news, I'm afraid, is that some models of Dell computers don't use standard ATX PSU supplies, so you MAY not be able to buy a replacement that will fit your computer case.
I'm truly sorry to be the bearer of such bad news.
