Default Shoppy grafix

Star wars galaxies is running rather choppy

here is my system

p4 1.4 ghz

384 megs of ram

geforce 3(64 mb) not sure which one i got when it first came out

the game just runs very slow

I have a T1 connection to the internet so thats not the problem

are there some settings that I can tweak to make the game run faster

Hmm, If the games has a grahpics options menu, you should change everything to it's lowest setting, see how it plays, and if you beleive that more graphics power can be used, then go for it. I also suggest you take your money and buy a new graphics card. GeForce 3 @64 mb, is somewhat, outdated. And also check the box of the game to see which graphics cards are supported. Your current card may not have support for this game.
Hope this helps

Default what kind of ram?

what kind of ram are you running? and whayt kind of memory is on the graphics card? if it isnt DDR, thats your problem, youll need more ram/video memory, also, if youre running win 2k/xp you could try making your paging/swap file larger (if you have the space) i keep my pagin file at about 4GB
