Ok, installed GTA3 and after 3 years of believing that my graphics card is good, I suddenly fell back down to earth!

I've got it on the lowest resolution and the game still goes along jumping about and really slow...

I can't remember what card I have got, is there a way to find out?

Anyway, is it that I need a better graphics card or is it just my PC that's slowing me down?

I've got an 800Mhz, 128mb RAM PC, it was rather good 3 years ago!

It's still above the recommended specs for the game though...

Any ideas?

Thanks...

All that matters is that you can save your coursework!

I don't care about all this technical crap, if a PC doesn't save my work, it's crap!

Memory size means jack these days, ALL that matters is memory speed.

Yea but if the memory clock increases and the amount of VRAM stays the same....

I think he was trying to point out that in the future graphics cards will have more memory on them (but I could be wrong!). And of course increase his number of posts so he'll be a regular.

Do you reckon he is talking about a Soundblaster 1024 SOUNDCARD?.

Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
Wonderful...
... and so easy-to-use even for a technophobe like me. I had my website up in a couple of hours. Thank you.
