Is this my video card or my computer? I every time i play its ok for about 5 minutes or so then becomes VERY slow and gets stuck and or frozen and i have to shut down my computer, i just bought a new video card for this and am pretty upset. Can anyone help me? my computer isnt that old. adn i have cable internet connection. thanks

The video card is a nvidia 6200, it was listed as one that works with this game, the 6000 series..my computer is an hp pavillion amd xp 3000+ 2.10 ghz 512 mb ram..is there anything else you would like to know? i wasnt sure what info to give you, thanks

The lack of RAM certainly doesn't help anything.

You could try downloading and watching Speedfan (search Google for it) to see if you're overheating any).

EDIT: Oh, also, watch your hard disk access light when the computer starts slowing down, see. If it's solid on or on very often then that could be the root of the issue.

ok i downloaded that speedfan program, what is it supposed to be?

It'd be nicer if you told us the temps, but under 70 is nice.
