1024*768 is my resolution, my video card is nvidia 256 MB geforce 6200. I was just kind of wondering what kind of things I could do 2 make fs2002 run faster. I've got a couple of question: What is trilinear filtering and antiasing and do I need to have them checked in my fs2002

Two options, add 512mb of ram or replace the card that doesnt use system ram. I have a Celeron 1.4 that can run 2002 pro np. It has 512 and a 6600gt. My advice would be to find a used 6600gt then start saving for new PC.

Thats even better, Just get a 7600 Series About 60 Bucks amd you should be set. Taking back the memory from the video card will be a huge improve ment.
