These boxes are small form factor machines and only have two PCI slots
on a riser card. No AGP slots, so no option of alternitive video cards,
unless with use PCI video cards (are such cards even available?).

They do, but whether they're new enough to support 16:9 modes other than
1920x1080, if that, may take some digging to find out. 1920x1080 as a HDTV
standard mode is actually quite old, while newer 1280x800, 1366x768,
1440x900, 1600x900 & 1680x1050 modes require newer chips to provide required
video BIOS mode support. New PCI cards still are made, but could well be cost
ineffective for your situation. It might be significantly cheaper to trade
out those widescreens for widely available though sometimes tricky to locate
1280x1024s, if you can't make those 845Gs do what you need.
