Hi, my geforce 4 mx420 broke and i had to remove it from my system. Once i installed the onboard video, i noticed a big slowdown in everything, closing windows had the effect of closing blinds. It takes extra long to load winamp, firefox, and other simple applications. Can the overall system slowdown be caused by not having a video card? Or is it something else. We ran a virus scan and there were no viruses. Back when i had my video card, the computer was fast, was able to play games, have winamp in the backround while playing games, load multiple windows at a time. Now i can barley run 1 application.
CPU SPECS:
Intel Celeron D 3.2ghz
2gb of pc2700 ram.
Onboard Video: Sg3 Unichrome Pro 32mb
Im planning on getting a video card from my brother, Geforce 6800. Im sure this would help, but will it help the overall slowness of the computer?
Thanks, Geno.
