video/graphics/performance help, please?

I have a HP Pavilion 061 with Microsoft Windows XP Professional, Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3 Build 2600, and processor x86 Family 15 Model 4 Stepping 9 GenuineIntel ~3065 Mhz. The graphics card is an ATI RADEON XPRESS 200 Series with 256.00 MB RAM, Driver Version 6.14.10.6571.

I have several questions. One is what compatibility display settings should SHIII/GWX Gold (i.e. SH3) run at? For instance, 256 colors?

I'm also looking for the best setting compromise between quality and performance. I have no idea, for instance, what nominal screen resolution or color quality of Display Properties should be. Nor do I have any idea about things like 'anti-aliasing' or 'anisotropic filtering'.

I'd like to try and get my fps above 8-10 when things get 'busy'.

Any help or advice will be greatly appreciated!
