I meant to post this earlier during the event but had another vid card that works fine. My question is, has anyone experience problems with the Matrox G550?

a review shows that it much lower performance than a gf4MX or ati raedon LE of the same vintage
the review said the matrox is a supurbe 2D card with low performance 3d added on
what you see is what you will continue to see
if you wish to improve you will need to swap in a better card (many budget cards will work fine)

Yeah that card is pretty out of date. If you can get your hands on $100 you can get at least a 128meg Nvidia or Radeon standard which will last a little while.
Give you an idea I have 4 computers and this is what they have:
PC- Nividia GeForce Ultra5600 128megs
PC- Nividia GeForce3 64megs
Lap-Ati Radeon 64megs
PC - IBM 64megs
The first 2 actually play Guildwars and my snapshots are post at the actual pixels(Ultra 5600) just cut to size.
