You need to get another better video card... What card are you running now and what are your computer specs? (Make, Model number and speed)

I would suggest you find out what expansion slot interfaces you have available, go to Best Buy, look in the video card section, and find a suitable card with that type of interface. Any card from Best Buy over $50 or $70 should run WOW.

Best Buy is a rip off joint... I only frequent them if I need something right now. I really love this card:

It performs well and the price is right. Try it!

It appears that the MS 6547 is an MSI motherboard that has an AGP graphics card slot so the card Tmagic650 loves so much will fit.

You know mailpup,
I was asked by a friend of mine to recommend a low cost, low profile AGP card under $40... In my searching, I came up with this "beloved" MSI card. To my amazement, the card performed way beyond my expectations when I installed it in my friends older Dell Desktop system

You're welcome, vasja220.

@Tmagic650, you know I was only kidding you, right? Others have favorite pieces of hardware too. Nothing wrong with that.

That's ok mailpup,
I work on a lot of older systems, and I'm asked all the time, to build the cheapest computers possible. I do this... and my labor is free too much of the time. I do keep busy. I have parts ordered for 3 systems now
