Hello,

Right now all that I have in my cmpluter is a 32MB graphcs card, which really doesn't help me at all.

So my question for you is what kid should I get Id on't want a very expensive card because I don't want  to spend a lot of money on Flight Simulator but I have to do something about this game.  

My computer is a Campaq  Pesario

Sny suggestions are welcome

Thank you

hmm can u post more detailed specs like processor speed and ram etc.. these will help determin the best upgrade

of the top of my head if your looking for a nice low budget card try the geforce 4 ti4200 128mb card.. these are going pretty cheap at the moment

You have to spend money on a decent graphics card or forget the good frame rates.

Your mainboard is almost without doubt, limited to 4x AGP bus speed and not 8x AGP.

I can only recommend that you search for a good quality 4x AGP card such as the XFX GF4 TI4200 64mb ($80)or get a better GF4 FX5600 128mb 8x AGP ($90) card of similar quality that will run at 4x AGP and will be of some use if you upgrade your PC.

A cheaper card such as the FX5200 isn't going to do the trick.

look here for U.S. prices on the various video cards for some bottom line pricing to compare your prospective purchase with.

What? no money?

Well, if your current video card is 32mb and it's onboard video, go into your bios setting and switch the shared video memory to 64 mb and get yourself a free 64mb video card!  :D (if you can spare the ram..)
