Hi, here are my PC's spec:
Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2
System Manufacturer: HP Pavilion 061
System Model: ER904AA-ABA A1440NProcessor: Intel(R) Pentium(R) D CPU 2.80GHz (2 CPUs) (DUO-CORE)

Page File: 352MB used, 3584MB available
PCI-Express 16x NVIDIA GeForce 7300 LE 256MB
HHD 250 GB
(PC is 5 months old)
I set the display settings of the game to the lowest, and still, it does not play smoothly (it drags)...what is wrong? is it because of my video card? if so, what type of video card will play the game flawlessly?

thank you very much....

Increasing your memory.helps with the freezing/getting booted/lag problem.You can increase your memory by.. going to start button, settings, control panel, system, advance tab, performance, advance tab, virtual memory, change it,make it 526kb or higher, click set then ok .If it’s not listed as Kb,” Some are not.” Just double the number listed. also go to this link and change your start up menu, too many un-needed programs running will make everything slow! i turned all off,and every thing runs fine.If some program is needed it will start up when you need it to.

Im surprisingly beneficial the sport ought to very almost pass for a teenager score anyhow. i think of because of the fact it has weapons each little thing gets an vehicle M score those days. It doesnt extremely curse or something like that, and your no longer on a killing rampage like maximum video games those days. rather your only stealthy and attempting to sneak previous each little thing, its a very cool interest and has no longer something extremely terrible in it in any respect. Its only like examining the extremely tom clancy e book, and if mothers and dads have a venture with examining books then we are in difficulty....
