Hey im new on this forum so i hope i place this right

I have recently installed windows 7 on my quite old computer and everything worked out fine... well not everything.. really not much...

first of all my soundcard that i paied arround 3-400 $ for dident have a driver for windows 7

and my graphic card dident work either (not sure why)
Then i went out and bought a new graphic card Geforce FX 5500 256 MB and a new soundcard. soundcard worked fine but graphic card i had some problems with the driver but i found a driver and got it installed.. then i went in to play Battlefield 2 but i had MASIVE MASIVE MASIVE laggs... compared to what i was used to... there was masive lagspike everywhere

anybody have any idea why i started having laggs?

Before buying or upgrading any new hardware have you properly checked that your motherboard supports the new hardware or not. You must first read in detail the specification of your motherboard before doing any upgrade. This looks like compatibility issue on your system. Check your motherboard details first and then check back again or just post your motherboard details here.
