    Unhappy cpu prob?

    I just lost and agp slot on my Asus A7V133 board and my GF2 GTS 32MB vid card was damaged. I replaced the Asus A7V133 board with an Abit KR7A-133. I replaced my vid card with a GF4 MX420. I also got 256MB DDR. Now when I play any game my fps is fine for 2 seconds and then it drops by 5 frames, which brings my system to a short freeze and it seems like lag. Is it my 800MHz Athlon T-Bird or is it another prob?

    It appears to be all games. But then all I have installed is fps. I tryed both the drivers on the disk and the 23.11 drivers.

    I'm sure more than 1 person must have an idea.

    It's a long shot but I had some what of a similar situation with an improperly configured (none) swapfile.
