Confused with GeForceFX5200

[sony das]

Hi
I am running WinXP Pro in my PC.After installing all driver updates and required software when I try to running Splinter cell:Chaos Theory Demo and Cronicle of Riddick demo its runs too slow even in most lowest graphics settings(640X480) with all advanced setting to low.This two demo requirements fully satisfy by my PC to play the demo.Although this same configuration run Far Cry with medium details and Doom3 with 800X600 pretty smooth.I have also completed Medal of Honor Pacific Assault with mediaum details.Even 3DMark2003 Pro scores only around 500 in benchmarking.What is the fact behind this?I am so confused.Please help.
Thanks in advanced.

2.4GHz 533MHzFSB
40GB7200
GeForce FX5200 128
256MB RDRAM

Go into the graphics settings and make sure that the AA is set to application along with the antiscopic. Another thing that u have to watch for is sometiimes you have to roll back the drivers, although i've only seen ppl with radeon cards that have to do that.

it's your gfx card, it's the lowest of the low-end GeForceFX cards, and they're not very good at all anyway. the best way to go about fixing that is to get a new one. but looking at your computer specs it's probably best just to buy a new computer anyway.
2.4GHz is okay for now, but a 40GB HDD will fill up fast the FX5200 is very slow
(I have a 5600 at my parents house and I hate it with a passion)
and you're garunteed to want more RAM, the standard now is 512, but it's inching more towards 1gig. (if you want best performance.)

if you don't want to buy a new computer i'd still suggest an upgrade:
Radeon 9600XT and an extra 256mb ram at least.
that alone should make those two games run with nice framerates.
