| When my computer was first set up for me by my cousin, he set the above
| graphics card for the best performance. Recently, I have had to reinstall
| everything and unfortunately, I don't have any idea what the setting for the
| above card should be, as far as 3D, rendering, etc goes, for ultimate
| performance, as since reinstalling the software for the graphics card,
| including the latest from drivers from ATI, etc, I get a lot of stuttering
| and clicking noises in the opening sequence of the game intro. Once in the
| game, it seems to be OK(ish)? When first installed and tested with 3D Mark
| 2001 SE benchmark, I was getting score in the very high 3000's and usually
| well over 4000. I just tested a few minutes ago and the only score I got was
| 1229! Could someone please let me know exactly what I have to do to get the
| settings right on this graphics card please? I don't play big games, just
| basic Microsoft Empire and Nation games. Many thanks, Mick
