games running slow
« on: March 03, 2007, 07:40:44 PM »
I am running windows xp and i am having problems with my games running slow. The game that i am running are older games (like 95 and down) and start up just fine but after playing for a few min. the game starts to bog down. Then after a few sec. is starts running fine aging, then it starts all over. It only does this when playing games and doesnt do this when doing anything else on the computer.

i am running windows xp home edition,  pentium 4 CPU 1.60GHz, 640 MB of RAM, and 10.17 GB of free space.

I am not trying to run any big games, these are all small games and i dont know why they would freeze up like this, please help. Thanks

What graphics card do you have?
When did this start and what happened before it did?
Can you give us some examples of games that have problems?
