So, the problem is that after I upgraded my computer Halo CE doesn't work right. I reinstalled the game and when I play it everything is choppy, but very fast. The game installed fine, I'm using the original CD. I thought it was a problem with my frame rate being too high and so I tried to lower my frame rate, but I noticed my only settings for frame rate after the upgrade are NoVsync and Vsync. Before I upgraded my computer I had the options of NoVsync, Vsync, 30 fps and 60 fps. The only logical thing I can say is that my PC is too good to run Halo CE. Here is a list of my parts now, and the parts I had when Halo used to work.

Upgraded parts:
2 gigs ram
Geforce 7900 with 256 MB ddr3
AMD athlon duo core 3800+

Old parts that Halo CE worked fine with:
1 gig ram
Geforce 7600 with 128 MB ddr3
AMD 2200+

I talked to one of my friends about this problem, his computer has almost identical parts as mine and he also experienced this, and so did another friend of mines a while back. The only thing I can think of is that my frame rate right now might be like, 120 fps but I can't change that because the game removed some choices from my video settings menu. Can anyone help? I'm ready to poon some noobs like the old days.
