Hey Dude! I figured you might have set the wrong video settings. Since your graphics card has only 32MB, you cannot have both 32bit colour and High Detail settings. Having the latest version of DirectX also helps.
Also try reading the Readme file, there are tons of information in there which will help you out.

If all else fails, you might want to consider getting a new graphics card, preferably one with a 64MB memory.

Don't expect people to help you out 4 mins after you post. Give it a while for people to actually read your post. (say an hour or 2).

Lower your settings until you sit on about 20-30 fps, that's the best you can hope for with your machine without suffering to much in the visuals department. Im running a PIII800, 512Mb SDRAM and a Geforce 3 and this is as good as I or anybody else (with similar specs) can get it.

If you can't live with 20-30fps, grab your reciept and disk and return it to the store.

The thing that did it for me was to remove my Soundblaster Live! card. I tried EVERY suggestion on all the forums and I finally resorted to removing the card and now I'm getting decent framerates.

I dont see how removing your sound card could possibly have anything to do with your frame rates or video performance.

Agharion, find a computer literate friend or pay a computer shop technican and let them fix your puter. You obvisiously have something terrible wrong in there (you tell me you dont have an AGP slot on a PIII 1 ghtz Motherboard?)

And stop screaming around or I'll tell yer daddy...even worser, you won't get any help if you behave like a spoiled brat.

Some dells don't have AGP slots. My brother has a dimension L something series 900mhz comp with 4 PCI slots and no AGP. Which sucks, but its nice and tiny.

Understandable...kinda workstation PCs.

But then I dont think you will see much nice graphics if you try to feed a GF Class graphics card trough a PCI slot, if they even sell GF PCI versions.

the problem is you are using a PCI video card, which shares the PCI bus with the other cards on the bus such as your soundblaster card, etc. not too mention the performance of a PCI card will be a lot worse than an AGP card of the same specs. Dell strikes again!!!!

next time, make sure to get a motherboard with an AGP port. also, the term 'lag' doesnt refer to poor frame rates. it refers to the time it takes for data to go from your pc over the internet to another pc and back.
