Why? You could still use it. It still works.

it works but not as good as my laptop which runs FS9 at maxed settings and higher resolutions at 45+ FPS.

that computer is about 4 years (wow time goes by quickly) old and can barely play on decent settings. i just want to see what its capable of.

i've tried messing with the graphics card some but if i go higher than +25MHz on the clock the screen goes blank and i have to restart.

the cpu itself i've had up to 3.06GHz but after prolonged gaming the computer just stops responding and a reset follows.
