Lag is so bad that it is taking all the fun out of the game, seems to get worst with every update. How can I set my preferences to optimized performance? I do have an AGP graphics card.

Thank you, I will get some more RAM, can't do much about a new CPU short of a new computer. This one I have is over three years old so I will more than likely get a new one next year or so.

This really can't be emphasized enough. You need a gig of RAM, period. Or more. After that, you can start thinking about crazier upgrades, but you can at least keep the same RAM.

Thank you all, I put in more RAM and the game runs much faster with less crashes.
