thats the link to your computers specs.
the 2 biggest things that need to be upgraded on your comp is the vid card and the sound card.
your vid card is 64MB shared with your computers ram, so up the vid card you will notice better graphics and smoother play
the sound card is a ac97 integrated chip, it just sucks the cpu cycles like crazy, you will get better performance with an audgy 2 or higher card, and much much better sound quality.
in the mean time put the video settings on minumim and put the sound quality on low :thumbup: |
