Its the onboard card. Thats how important the card is to render this stuff the third image as you say is open GL which again will improve a bit more if you get a new card. I remember this hassle many years ago when I first started out. Have a look around fo a cheap gaming card, that will sort it out. Theres no need to break the bank to get a good render out providing the machine can cope in the other areas like ram. cheers Jay
