I bought it and was very excited to start playing it…

But it runs really slow on my computer. Like, slow transitions, slow everything. Sims 1 worked fine though. And age of empires.
I’m not a computer person but after thorough research, it seems that I meet all the minimum requirements..

I think i have to buy a new video card (i think it’s installed in the ‘motherboard’... and we bought this computer like 4 years ago).
Or it’s either the ‘RAM’... we have 246 mb. or 256 i cant rememeber. People said that I should update to 512.
I’ve checked the prices and they are SO expensive!! (video card and ram thing).
