I think the problem could be with Graphics card,check the make and then see if you can get some new drivers for it,if not put all the details of your card here and someone will give you an idea of what to do.Also make sure you have the latest version of DirectX Cheers Spetznaz

Leinad, I agree with Spetznaz, make sure all driver's and DX is up to date. But I also think your card might be a little underweight in this class, can you upgrade? If you can, go with a least a 16mb graphic's card. That's pretty much bottom line for rescent sim's if you want good to excellent frame rates. I know the box states 8mb needed, but I alway's go by the "recommended" section. Also down the line, consider adding 64mb to your system memory for a total of 128mb, this will help greatly also. Hope everything work's out for you.
