Improving performance on a Intel 82845G
While it probably can't be done, I want to know if there is any way I can improve the performance of this crappy, crappy card. Even on high quality it seems I can never achive the detail that is shown in so many screenshots.
More specifically, I want post process effects. They won't enable. Whenever I check the box to enable them, it disables whenever I hit okay. Just incase it might be needed, my system specs: Intel Celron D 2.66GHz 764mb Ram Video Card, read above |

I have no AGP/PCI-E slots, so my range is VERY limited. Not to mention I am short on cash.
I am currently looking at an Indo3D GeForce FX 5600 128mb, it's about the best I can get that will work with my system AND be in my price range. |

While I must admit, it is a VERY nice card, one that if I owned it, I would never take my eyes of GW. However, $200 is out of my price range.
