Did you reboot? Are your drivers up to date?

What brand and model of motherboard, and is it using the latest BIOS?
Did James' suggestion work? I assume so, it usually does.
Angel is correct. Your video card is crap, especially compared to the rest of your system. You can get a cheap GeForce FX 5200 for about $60 US, maybe less. That'll work a lot better for SL.

being able to compare a TNT2 Ultra 32M upstairs and a GF5700 128M downstairs I can officially confirm Angel's statement... it *does* look like poo... but as long as you have some CPU behind it and dont mind not having bump, shiny, etc it works just fine. I *do* mind not having shiny things and floppy hair/clothes... gotta find a cheap FX card for that machine  UU |
