Ok..in Diablo II my FPS for the past 5 days has been 2..2 FPS..

I thought it was just odd lag or something so I'd restart my comp..didn't help. I thought maybe I should reinstall..didn't help.

Then I thought maybe if I update my graphics card drivers..didn't help.

Right now I'm downloading the newest version of Direct X..which I doubt will help.

I also thought it was just BNet..so I tried single player..didn't work.

I opened up SC and played lag free on Bnet..

So I dunno what the hell the problem is, but I thought maybe one of you did..wtf?

Well, the 8MB might be your problem.... 8 MBs?

Hate to say it but you may need to break the bank for an upgrade.

One of my 7 comps in the room right now has one, it will still improve graphics overall, and like video quality ect. I would get a new car anyway, if you are still having problems do what roach said.

Frames per second. For 3D games, you want 60..for movies you want 28-30.

I wish people could at least say "I don't know, sorry Viz." so I could stop checking this thread for new replies..

The reason people say it's your hraphics card is because your graphics card is a piece of crap.

I think, quite frankly, that you got extremely lucky that it worked on that thing.
