I'm no computer expert..no by a long shot...(does it show

) but it seems to me you have one mule trying to pull a 20 ton wagon over a muddy mountain pass..and it ain't gonna work....at least not very well..or without killing the mule.

Sorry I couldn't be helpful..but that is the impression I got from the post.

Overclocking is well known to cause problems like you describe. Also, your video card is pretty marginal for this game. If you can afford an upgrade ($100 or so) I'd do it.

Seminole, you hit it right on the head. His "upgrade" isn't even in the ballpark for running SH4. The LEAST graphics card I'd try to run the game on is an nVidia 7600GT. Anything less than that is just pushing a rope.

Uhhh you did disable the 'on board' video when you installed the new card right?
