I seriously have no idea if this forum is applicable toward a game I'm having trouble with. CounterStrike. Oh well, here goes, maybe I'll get lucky with someone with CounterStrike + graphics card smarts.
My graphics card is a NVidia GeForce MX 4000: 128 MB DDR PCI. That's what it says on the box. I expect that a video card like this would be able to run CS in OpenGL video mode perfectly fine. It doesn't. That piece of crap resists me whenever I try something. I installed the latest drivers, fiddled with the graphics card controls, but this little SOB won't work. The OpenGL mode is glitchy and laggy, and my FPS is a mere 5-8 per second. Horrible. It's not my internet connection, I have cable. It's not my computer (I think), it's fairly new. Is it my RAM, or my card, or CS itself? If you have any suggestions about tweaking, or drivers, DirectX, or CS commands, or... things, just tell me PLEASE. OpenGL looks like a god compared to crappy Software or D3D. Help me out!
P.S. Sorry for asking about CS in this forum. Those bastards at other CS forums simply ignore me. I have no idea CS here is a mortal sin here, just be merciful and help out. I'm pretty sure that there are some CS players here.
THANK YOU.
edit: By the way, I kinda suck at this technical stuff. I might need some specific directions.
