Problems running ingame movies.

On some games, I just can't run the movies well. DXIW, Morrowind, etc. It'll go fairly laggy and occasionally go perfectly but there's no sound, or sometimes just not do anything for a couple seconds. It just really pisses me off, how do I fix this?

My Video card: Nvidia GeForce 4 4400
My (ancient) Sound card: Creative Soundblaster Live! Value
My memory: 256 megs

Hmmm, get as many codecs as you can, and it may be the mixture of low RAM and bad vid card. I have a soundblaster Live too and have no problems

The Tech forum is were these posts need to go. Your not even a noob.

256 megs of memory is just enough to run Win XP you need more memory

What is up with all the missplaced threads lately?

How much space do you have left on your HDD? Happened to me and when I cleared some space it worked fine.

yeah thats not the speed buddy, AMD Athlon helps about as much as saying, over a Car trouble shooting hotline when asked "What type of automobile is it?" and you answer "It's a car."

Oh my god. Rbstr, come here and protect me from him. Anyways, it should be in your BIOS unless that has been disabled by your manufacturer. If it is, just go to Start > Run and type in "dxdiag". Without the quotation marks of course.

God, that's below the recommended processor speed fro MW. Get a new processor, get more RAM. Perhaps a new graphics card, just listen to see what Rbstr says.
