All games or just a specific game? The FX5200 is far from being a good gaming card.

The FX5200 is the minimum supported by Oblivion: http://www.oblivionportal.com/info/... And it isn't even supported by Prey, so you should expect it to run horribly, if at all: http://www.prey.com/support/ Prince of Persia is older so it *should* play reasonably well: http://www.ubi.com/US/Games/Info.as... It could be that you have some background apps or spyware interfering with your game play.
