Get the lates Nvidia drivers. that is key, if that doesnt work, look in windows and see if you have alot of programs runing and eating up memeory, failing htat try to overclock

I have a gf 2 mx 200 64mb in a duron 800.
I am afraid that card is simply too light for such new games. mx's were no gaming cards to begin with . I dont know if mx's are properly tunable. the ti's have factory software to overclock (no guarantee anymore off course). but there wasnt anything like this with my old mx. it also depends on the rest of your system off course . could you give a more detailed description of your pc, which os you are running and so on.

The minor improvements you are going to get trying to overclock it aren't worth the hassles - I'd either run it in lower detail or get a newer card. If you are a gamer that keeps buying new games, you are going to be caught in a constant hardware upgrade cycle.

Listen to Glc, he is right, but if you are stubborn, I suggest coolbits its a registry patch that alows clock adjustment, no gaurentees, risky, etc.
