Thanks! Thanks a lot for the quick reply. I really appreciate you taking the time to look at my post and coming with a solution!

Thank you for the reply! Ok I ran the Belarc Advisor tool. Here is all of the spec's for my computer. I hope this helps. The computer was serviced by a guy that had to replace a lot of things on it to make it work again. Thanks again for helping.

Hello my name is Jacob. I am new to PC help. I would like to say I know a lot about computers, but i really don't.

I am new to PC gaming. The only thing I have really ever played was Quake and Doom a long time ago. I am now wanting to find a graphix card that is compatible with my PC and one that is not really expensive. I would mainly be playing First person shooter games. If someone could help me I would really appreciate it. I recently bought fear perseus mandate and it crashes while trying to set it up and I have 2 Gigs of Ram and that is the max on my PC. I ran Dxdiag and attached the info.
