Zeldor:
Both Rome Total War and Battle for Middle Earth 2 work well on this computer. I've noticed that their graphics are slightly better than dominions.

I found something that I think is the video/graphics card: ATI Mobility Radeon X 1300 (0X7149)

Both of the games you mentioned use DirectX, not OpenGL. They do the same stuff, some graphic cards (or spesific drivers) are better at on and worse at the other. Downloading newest drivers is always worth trying.

I'm not that good with inner workings of computers either, but I remember having some trouble with an ATI card a long time ago. I think it was something like my DomII not working with an ATI graphics card until I found different drivers or something like that. Hopefully someone here is more experienced in hardware and can offer a few hints.

I'll definately check new drivers. How do I find them? Should I just google "ATI drivers"?

By the way, I really appreciate the help you guys are giving me. Many thanks!

By the way I'm not very knowledgable about computers - just talking about 5 operating systems makes my head spin.
I don't read anyone talking about 5 operating systems.

Go to ATI homepage, and they'll probably have some kind of service for downloading drivers. You'll have to find drivers that work spesifically for your ATI Mobility Radeon X 1300, I think.
