Hi there,

I recently purchased a bare bones kit, the Shuttle SN41G2 and installed a AMD Athlon XP 2800+ processor, 512k Ram, Nvidia graphics card, Samsung 160 GB hard drive plus audiocard and DVD player.

I really enjoy the game "War of the Ring", but am finding it difficult as when scrolling it is so very slow and makes the game a bit of chore, by the time I can react to a situation it is too late.

I thought maybe an upgrade to my graphics card and doubling the ram might improve the performance.

Unfortunately, I can't remember what graphics card I purchased and wonder if anyone can give me a tip on how to find this information.

Also any upgrade advice would be most appreciated,

Many thanks,

Hayley

Device manager will show what Windows thinks is installed. Everest or
Sandra will tell you what IS installed.

Thanks Michael for the advice - just used Everest and discovered that I only
have a Nvidia GeForce4 MX Integrated GPU with 32mb memory.

So plan to get one with 128mb memory and hope this helps improve
performance.

Much appreciated,

Hayley
