My computer can't seem to handle playing more than two tables at once. A friend suggested that I might need to upgrade my video card. Any idea as to what I would need to play 3-4 tables simulatenously, and how much it would cost to upgrade? Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
When you tell me a bad beat story, I don't really listen. I nod sadly and pretend to care, but actually I'm using the time to think about more important things. That way, you feel the sympathy you're seeking, and I put my time to good use. It works for both of us. -- Mike Caro, Super System 2

Your Video card is definately not the problem as suggested. Your system needs more memory. 512k is usually sufficient enough for mutitasking. You can buy a stick of 512k for as little as $50 from Newegg.com. However, check your owners manuel for the type that is installed, i.e. DDR PC 2100 or DDR PC 3200. The number dictatates how fast it is. There are many different types right now and not all motherboards support them all. If you are still unsure you can always go to the web site of your manufactuer and purchase an upgrade there. But it usually will cost more than getting it from Newegg.Blaze
