1. Ok. I officially placed the blame on my ancient video card.

Quick remedy complete:

Sapphire’s Radeon 9600 Pro video card encompasses the unrestrained dreams of the avid gamer, even one on a budget! Running at a 400MHz clock speed through 4 pixel pipelines, this card will deliver exquisite detail, smooth moves, and enough action to keep you busy! Onboard 256MB of 128-bit DDR RAM at 466MHz, and 400MHz RAMDACs give you enough visual power to run your favorite games at their highest resolutions and best settings.

A huge number of options exist for tweaking this card. You can work with it to maximize its performance and your enjoyment. Designed for AGP 8x, you can get state-of-the-art visual display, even from older motherboards, saving money for the next major upgrade you want to make. Sapphire’s in-house technology helps to improve the display of detailed images by smoothing movement and reducing pixilation in real-time, with giving a hit to your CPU. Cables and ports are included for video connection to external displays. This is an excellent card for the thrifty gamer, and one sure to keep you happy for a long time to come.

at 44.99 + 4.99 S&H - it's a steal!

4. I'm really pleased with it.

Though once I can afford to I'll probably upgrade it (along with a few other things).
