Do you have the latest driver for your video card?

do you have a program to check the fans and temperatures of the system.
when was the last time you blew the cob webs out of it.

along with making sure you have the latest drivers for the video you need to make sure it is getting enough cooling.

Usually from the mobo manufacturer's website. It is very hardware specific.

There is a later video driver than the one provided in the box. It
corrected a number of isses. It can be found here.

Just fill in the options to get the right drivers. There is also a newer
and much better version of the Catalyst software.

Perhaps your pc, and or video card, does not have the proper drivers
installed to do the "high graphics".

Perhaps your video card cant even do the "high graphics".

Have same card, 2.4 GHz cpu, 1GB RAM, XP w/SP2 installed and all subsequent
critical updates. The hardware core driver is of XP origin 2003 date. ATI
current driver installation package in place. Have one game which is
relatively old. MS Age of Empires III. Not terribly graphics intensive.
Have 2 problems with it. Opening screen intro: sometimes choppy, sometimes
drops some 3D aspects. In the game itself, if I scroll quickly across the
screen on the mini-map when there's a change in the game, the video will
shutdown in the game. Display will default to standard VGA resolution and
revert to the windows screen. Have to close the game with ctrl-alt-delete.
Got tired of sending the fault data to MS.

Based on the above, I've never tried any current 3D intensive games as a
result. Way I figure it, if MS and ATI can't get it right for some older MS
game, how's a newer 3rd party game gonna work correctly?

Strangely, it is surprisingly common among systems. Google for 'speedfan'
which works with mostr motherboards.
