    Video card is your problem. I'm also assuming that since it only has 64 MB of its own memory, it's stealing 64-192 MB from system RAM via Turbocache (many of Nvidia's low-end PCI-e cards do that).

    Actually, if you lower your settings sufficiently, you can hit 30 fps and above. I'm serious. In fact, I recommend running at low settings because on lowest, it looks just as good as the Xbox version, and on high, the difference is minimal but with a serious performance drop. 1024x768 or 800x600 on lowest should do you fine - the game will still look good and the framerates will improve.

    The lowest I would go with H2V is a eVGA 7600GS, but if your dad would let you I'd get an eVGA 7600GT instead.

    lmao that is the funniest nonsense I have heard in a while. It's worse than Kiwidoggie's techno-bullshit. No, the LCD screen has never been your problem, never will.

    Lower your settings? Go to the video options, that's how. If you don't even know how to change graphical settings I pity you.

    Remember, the settings a game automatically puts you on are not always ideal.

    Xetsuei, I don't think an upgrade is a viable option for him at this moment, so he's better off adjusting his graphical settings.
