My combat replays are extremely slow on WinXp

Ok, try 2 things in this order and not necessarily at the same time.
First try going to full screen to see if it helps (alt+enter is fastest way). Means, go full screen and then start battle replay, not sure if it helps if you do it during battle replay.
Second thing to try is to disable light effects in video options. It has huge performance issues on some older video cards and it may give you much better performance if you disable it.

It was the light effect.

PS: the ATI Radeon 9550 is a very old video card?

Thank you all very much!

Well, as far as ATI cards are concerned i used both ATI Radeon X800 GTO with 256 RAM and ATI Radeon X1650 with also 256 MB RAM. X800 struggled with light effects while my X1650 has no problems with it. I'm not really sure what or how old cards will work or not, but I guess all less then a year old cards should work with light effects with no problems.
