GRAPHIC ISSUES!!!

when i see ppl post their screenshots nd pics of their games, the quality of the graphics is pritty good....it seems like it was taken at a higher resolution than 800X600....however,i could only manage to play the game without any laggings at a 800X600 resolution with a geforce fx 5200 grphics card...it dznt seem like other ppl hav problems playin in a higher resolution with a graphics card that is a lil lower or the same. does neybody know wut the problem is??

it also depends on the rest of the system... cpu, ram, etc.

3.0GHZ processor and 512 ram....ney other reasons?

nothing seems wrong with your pc. the best thing to do first is to defrag. then if this doesn't work delete some unimportant files (maybe your hard disk has little space left). the last resort is to reformat your hard disk (this will definitely solve your problem)

might also depends on the brand of grafix card, although they carry the same name, there are alot of different versions out there.

also, like you said you play the game without any lag... maybe those others don't. lagging is something very subjective, i've seen friends of mine being satisfied with how a game ran... when i saw it it lagged like shit (to me). if you're used to games running slow you dont even notice it after a while.

if you want no lag and decent grafix, update your card.

thnx guys
