My current PC is a dodgy Fujitsu Seimens thing I inherited off my dad that has integrated graphics and doesn’t even have a AGP or PCI-E slot.
I just bought a PNY GeForce 6200 PCI card which I installed today so I could have a mess about on XNA (integrated graphics wasn’t up to the job). Had a look at the XNA samples and stuff, everything running fine - had a quick blast on some free-ware shooters and they were all running a lot smoother then before.
Loaded up Blitz Plus and found that I’m getting godawful frame rates on stuff that ran fine on the integrated graphics chip. For reference, this is a project I started on my old P2-350 with a GeForce 2 AGP card, and I had no problems at all on that machine. I did a couple of quick benchmark tests and it’s definetely a performance issue based on how much I’m drawing to the screen (almost entirely with the drawimage and drawrect functions).
Anybody got any ideas why this is and how I can fix it? I’ve downloaded the latest drivers from NVIDIA and they don’t seem to have had any effect.

Wasn’t too sure where to post this, but thought I’d do it here.
So, yeah, we haven’t had a discworld game in a while. It was in my computing class that I realised what would make a discworld game work is an oblivion-style game.
Think about it. You could have the Guilds, and people fighting to be the best of the Guilds, to be the Patrician, etc.
Was just thinking about this. A friend of mine (who hates Oblivion) says it wouldn’t work.
What do you guys think?
