Please help if you can. Here is my situation:
I have a PIII 866 with 256mb ram on PcChips M758LMR+ motherboard. It has a built-in 16mb agp video card that I can't play games on. The picture is very slow and choppy. It's like a frame-by-frame advancement. I messed with refresh rate and all that, but no dice.

I thought it might be the video card, so I went and bought a new 64meg Hercules 4000 xt-pci (since there is no AGP slot). The new card is recognized and all drivers are installed. I even uninstalled the sis630 video card that's built in, but there is no difference in game play.

The game is Need for Speed III, an old game that ran perfectly on my old AMD k62 300 with a Voodo 16mb video card.

Any suggestions from you pros??? Please help.
PS - there are no trojans or viruses on my machine.

Thanks!!!!!!
