Begging For Mercy Makes Me Angry

"Get off my lawn!" -Clint Eastwood (best actor ever)

I have Halo 2 Vista and meet all requirements (everything checks out as a 3/5 or above), but my graphics card, even though it is over minimum requirements does not. It is an NVIDIA 6200. The game runs fine when I am in multiplayer alone, but when someone joins it lags, and in campaign it runs fine until enemy's enter. I am told that this is due to a lack of graphics card memory. I was wondering if that was the case, and if it is if there is any way to fix it. If there is no way to fix it, what would be a good PCI graphics card to buy at a reasonable price (preferable range $60-$120)?

That's not a PCI card, so it wouldn't work.
Unfortunately, 6200 is around top of the line for PCI sockets these days, though a Radeon X1550 might be a (really really) small step up.

Man go with me on this, upgrade your mother board, then worry about a grachics card. Also i have a wrose card then you, and all you got to do for lag in single player is play through it a bit. After a while the card adjusts and the game runs just as good as it does in multiplayer. Just don't play on heroic or legendary. And don't even try to watch the ingame cutsences.

Get a new mother board, you get a new card with it, and sometimes a procssor with it.
