You may need to do the same registry fix as a GF4 does, and also, your graphics card is severely lacking in power.....

I had an Fx5200. It both sucked and blew, in defiance of conventional physics. Within a week I'd replaced it with a Ti48, and I've never been faster :cool:

The way I figure it, by the time DX9-only games actually start to make an appearance, the FX line will have come down in price to the point where I may actually be able to afford a decent one, whereas today the entry-level card (the 5200) is almost as expensive as the high-end Ti cards.
