Hi -
I have a dell dimension r400 (Pentium II, 400 MHz), 256 MB ram, WinXP. The current video card is a ATI Xpert 98D 8MB AGP video card.
I don't know didly about video cards, but my son wants to play a new game - Hunting Unlimited. I loaded the game just fine, but the mouse doesn't really work. It lags WAAAAAAYYYYY behind and just jerks around the screen. Thankfully he can play the game with the keyboard.
The video card appears to meet the minimum requirements for the game, so shouldn't the mouse move around all right? I've tried different resolutions and color depths, but its all the same.
I can't fnd new drivers for the video card on ATI web-site.
So - do i need a new video card? Would that help?
Thanks in advance (remember, I don't know anything about video cards).
Tom
PS - I almost forgot - I'm using a Dell 15"LCD display (love it) which had three cables coming out of the back when i got it - 1 power cable, one regular VGA cable, and one other cable that I assume is a digital cable (I've never seen one before). Should i consider a digital video card?
