Is my Graphics Card good enough?

[Arekkusu-Kun]

I am not new to this game, but I have two different computers and I was wondering if this graphics card is not good enough for Fiesta or something because I'll be in the game and then everything flashes and the game just closes. Also, everything is really choppy and not smooth at all (I don't think it's lag). Would that be the problem of my graphics card? (I'm sorry, I'm a noob at this stuff lol) If my card isn't good enough, is there any reccomendations for a new one that is good for all games? Also could someone please explain what a Driver is and what I should download?

I believe I have a NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE.

If you need more information please tell me! Thanks! :)

alright, first off, your graphics card is onboard, which means that it is built into the motherboard, and is therefore weak.
however if you lower the settings it should be ok.
for the drivers, you want to get them from this link.
http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp
go to the second link if you use windows XP or 2000.

good luck!
also, your right on track with downloading new drivers.
allot of problems can be fixed that way.
(goes to find his own drivers.)

try installing "omega drivers", they worked for me and I run a Nvidia geforce4
www.omegadrivers.net just dl the ones for Nvidia(they have ATI as well) uninstall your old ones and reinstall the omega's. I find them better than nvidias 97.xx which would not run Fiesta for me.

I have the same exact video card, and it runs fine.

Must be your computer.

Anyways, if you want to improve performance, just go to your Nvidia control panel and set everything to performance.
