I have a new system. It is not a wimpy system but when I play the Half Life Day One demo that came with my Monster Sound MX300, it crawls like a worm. It is very sluggish responding to my keyboard. Is it the system? The graphics? It looks beautiful but trying to do anything is impossible. I have to hold the key down for a second or more before it starts responding. By then it has so many keystrokes in the queue I have to wait for it to clear out. I have a ASUS P2D-DS motherboard, P2 450MHz, 128MB SDRAM, Quantum3D Obsidian2 X- 24 accelerator, Hercules Dynamite TNT. This thing just burns through anything I have tried so far (half life demo is the only game I have tried). Any hints/tips on how to configure my video cards would be appreciated. I am new to the world of 3D cards/accelerators. Thank you!
