definitely more ram, running vista with 1gb is already kind of pushing it.

you mite need a better processor too.

also idk how old your computer is but does your motherboard even have a pci-e slot?

I bet any money it's agp, i have a similar system. Except mine is a 2.8 single core, They are wrong though you can get a decent gfx card and have good gfx and halo will run fine but i'd suggest not getting anything higher then a 512mb and don't spend more then 60 dollers. There are basically 3 kind of slots agp pci and pci-e what you need to do is type the model number of ur pc in google and find out hat way if you can't tell the difference.

99% of gfx cards have blury scope that can be easily fixed by disabling the alpha rendering targets. I don't like it though and i use scope blur also if you turn your resolution up or use use11 it helps. But yeah you definitely need to get rid of the chipset and don't worry about upgrading your ram 1 gig is more then enough to run halo and record just switch to xp. Fuck vista tbh

Well, if when you find out, and if you have a PCI-E slot, I'll sell you this card. If can get you atleast 80+ fps everything high I believe. Like I said, $25

Chipset is intergrated graphics. It doesn't have a specific card, its based of the motherboard.
