Dear friends,
I have an AMD Athlon 64 3000+ socket 754(bad performer) processor. motherboard is Asus K8V-MX with 32 mb onboard graphics memory with Asus K8M800 chipset and 256 MB of ram. speed is very slow but Microsoft Age of Empires 3 runs smoothly without any glitches and without GRAPHICS CARD !!!. i am wondering about this. has anyone got the same configuration.
