Well its because of your graphics card - it sucks to be honest lol. Try picking up a 7600 from nvidia.
ok thank you very much, ill probably buy a new system soon. dis 1 is gettin old ! which mainboard best now days? and amd or intel?
by that i asum you mean processer but if it is then its intel at the moment the Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 looks good £133.09 - dabs.com or the Intel Q6600 Core 2 Quad 2.4GHz £142.12 - Aria Technology Ltd hope this helps
