i had a x1550/1300 and they ran low but i could play now i try to run them and they crash ,i even reinstalled the os (xp sp2) the whole 3 pointer ! etc etc but they still crash and when one runs i install the next game and that 1 messes up the other ones , i got sumthing like " error need at least 5mb or free space on installed hdd disk" from cod world at war . fear i get "invaled video rendering sumthing sumthing" far cry 2 crashes in the intro drive sceen etc etc why ? my old lol card ran them barely at low but still ...i barely got the card tuesday was going for the 4670 but the cash not enought even do its cheap ...any ideas?
 
First, sentences are nice. :p

Second, complete error messages help..."invaled video rendering sumthing sumthing" doesn't help at all. Error messages exist for a reason, they're there to tell you what is malfunctioning. Ignoring them and not understanding them is an excellent way to not solve the problem. Can we get the complete messages?

Third, from the first message, it appears you don't have enough disk space on your disk. Check how much space you have left on your hard disk in My Computer and think about deleting some of your files that you don't look at or need anymore. How big is your hard disk?

The 2600 being the 2600, I'm going to guess off the bat you have driver issues. What drivers did you install for the card?
