You need a better video graphics system. We need to know more about what computer you are using.

Brand, model, Intel or AMD, age, memory size, repair history. The kind of information a tech can use in comparison with others to help you look for known problems.

okay...i'm not sure about age because we got it from someone about...probably two years ago... it says its an HP Pavillion 04 so...(sorry i'm not a computer whiz...but i guess you already knew that ) the system model6317A-ABA 510n Processor: Intel Celeron CPU 1200MHz and the memory is 32.0 MB... i dont know if that helps any...
