|
|
Hi,
For general office work and internet, the system performance is great. However, when it comes to trying to play some of the 3D games, the performance is a serious problem.
For example, I try to play the 3D chess game, and the system is very slow. I press a button, and it takes 10 seconds for it to register.
Is there some trick to achieving decent video performance?
Thanks for all the help.
Mike H
Video Card is nVidia GeForce4 MX440
I went to nVidia WEB site and downloaded drivers. However, when I tried to install, the message said something about the legacy drivers will be used, and the install ended.

For a quick listing of some of your hardware try the following command shown below. I've extracted the output as it's alot longer. There's a similar listing with gnome, dunno what it is though.
| Code: | /sbin/lspci
00:00.0 Host bridge: Intel Corporation 82830 830 Chipset Host Bridge (rev 04)
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82830 CGC [Chipset Graphics Controller] (rev 04)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation 82830 CGC [Chipset Graphics Controller]
