Hi,
Thanks every one for your advice. All contributions gratefully received. I had a gut feeling it might be the graphics card, so I will start by upgrading that first and then tackle the CPU. If you have any other comments on graphics cards please let me know, I am now a pensioner so i don't want to waste money getting the wrong card. One other point with regard to the processor that I have in the Albatron K8X800 at present. Is it possible to upgrade the CPU.
Thanks
