Yeah Monk, I don't know if this is the problem, but if you're gonna play source you're going to need more RAM than 256, and probably a faster CPU too. My specs are about the same as yours (with more RAM) and I havn't even considered trying source on here.

go to start>Run, then type in "dxdiag" w/out quotes and go to display tab, that'll tell u everything.

Actually those Dell's come with an Intel EG-2 chip and uses part of your system memory as it's own.

Also can i ask another question?I figured that i would just stick it in here as to not make myself look like Ocelo-errr a forum spammer....Anywhos my ping in cz is getting shitty.I used to average a ping of 50 to 70 which was perfect.Now im getting an average of 90 to 120!I dont know what happened but it just picked up in the past week or so.And my fps is shitty too.Where i would average a 50 to 70 fps now at some instances i get somthing like 14 fps!Anyone have any ideas what the F*CK could have caused this?

The pings are rising from the servers I think. I can go to other servers and still ping in the 30s. But my average on n00bfest is like 70 or 80.
