    GeForce FX Go 5200

    I got it... If I use the -ff option to run Halo, it treats my card as a fixed function card, thus diabling pixel shading and all of the other things that slows it down. Everything is running fine now. :cool: Thanks to everyone for your help. :)

    GeForce FX Go 5200

    Tried them. I think they help some, but still not good. It runs fine if i look at the ground, but the instant I look up at somehting in the distance or something moving it sends my speed down the toilet.

    I realize that the more advanced features in Halo, such as the pixel shading and such, are probably the issue, but on my older system (Althlon XP 1900 1.47Ghz, 512Mb RAM, and 64Mb Radeon 6800) Halo runs much smoother, which leads me to believe that Halp was automatically turning off whatever...
