Your processorÕs good, IÕm hoping that you made a spelling error on the RAM, and your HD wouldnÕt be a problem. How much VRAM do you have? Also, what operating system are you using?Originally posted by barnettbeans
I have realised now that iv nearly completed the dog my comp is screaming in pain and moving is very blocky.

I have just bought a 256mb AGP graphics card for £40 from Blustreak computers Not the most powerful card in the world but I'm hoping that it'll make rotating my frog* a far more smoother process. It's in the Uk and they deliver really quickly..not as quick as Aria..I ordered my new HDD and power supply** from them yesterday and they arrived this morning
I see you're in the Uk..I've got a few links to companies that seem to offer good deals on computer bits if you want them. I can only recommend Bluestreak and Aria as they are the only ones I've bought from recently* I've heard some euphemisms in my time
:blush:**You might need to upgrade your PSU if you buy certain video cards

Yeah i think it is your video card, it seems to be a very old graphics card and on the cheap side IMO when i just googled and ebayed it. what i recommend is something which has atleast 512mb if possible and is ranged at around $100-$200 like what Architect has mentioned in the earlier posts,
