Hi Alex!Can you advise me what video card you're using, power supply, and specs of both? I'm having an interesting problem and I'm wondering if it might be related to one or the other. Take a look -- thanks!!!http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=sho..._id=11192&page=Ed Lin, D.O.S.

hi Alexjust one questionwhat graphics are you using to run your Dell 2405?as you can see i got a 6600Gt and ive heard this card isnt powerful enough to run at 1900 x 1200 resolutions.

Hi Clayton,I'm running a 7800GT and am quite happy with it. I tried a 9800Pro previously but the card seemed to struggle a bit at full resolutions. Since I upgraded CPU and GFX all is very fluid however. My only issues now seem to be nvidia driver related :(I thing a 6600GT is a pretty good choice for now. You can always lower the resolution to see if FS improves a lot. If it does a new card might be of help to you. I got my 7800GT for around 500 bucks. Check on www.staticice.com.au for the cheapest.Cheers,Alex YSSY
