radon igp 320m + world of warcraft - problems

steelcurtain11

Hello. I just recieved a used laptop, and i've been trying to play world of warcraft but the graphics are kind of choppy when i play, it runs slow ( i only get an average of 10fps while playing) there's really no difference when the settings are turned all the way down or up. still same fps. I tried searching for updated drivers but couldn't find any,and the topics i found were too confusing. Here are my specs.
under dxidag:

Display:
name:radeon igp 320M
manufacturer: ati technologies inc.
chip type: u1 agp (ox4336)
current display: 1024 x 746 32bit 60hz

here is the current driver installed:
main driver:ati2dvag.dll
version:6.14.0010.6436
date: 5/15/2004
whql logo'd: yes
mini vdd: ati2mtag.sys
vdd: n/a
ddi version: 9 ( or higher)

here is the system info-
system model: presario 2100 (dz414u)
bios: phoenixbios 4.0 release 6.0
processor: mobile amd athlong xp2800+ mmx 3dnow ~2.1ghz
memory: 382mb ram
direct x : directx 9.0c

i have windows xp home sp2 edition installed.


as i said, i tried installing some drivers but they either crashed the computer, or when i started up the game it said 3d acceleration couldn't start. The otehrs i found were too confusing to follow or the links were dead. Could anyone help me out here to be able to play this game so it's not choppy and the fps are higher? thanks.


--I've tried reading this but it kind of confused me=http://www.hardwareheaven.com/mobility-radeon-drivers-support/96497-epic-legacy-radeon-igp-320m-340m-345m-related-chips-out-there.html . so could anyone point me to a link with a driver to download and install to make it work?

that may or may not be about the maximum performance you'll get, but i'm not too familiar with the chipset at all

i wouldnt be suprised if it cant be improved... so little ram, old tech, etc
