Well back at christmas I got BF2, and as I said once it doesn't accept my video card. Now it had a warranty so I got my money back.
But the thing is I don't know what type of FPS I should get instead.
I dunno if to wait until a new game comes out or keep looking around.
PPl have said CS 1.6 and source, or Day of Defeat and CoD 2 (which won't work either).

Now, I need some ppls opinion on what PC FPS would be the best to get at this time or any time in the future.

If you don't get a video card update, you will be playing pong on your computer for the rest of your teenage life.

Agreed. If you can't play any of the most popular FPS games, you won't be able to run new ones as they're released. Check and make sure your graphics card drivers are updated. If they are and you still can't run anything, you need better hardware.

Well, this is a BRAND new dell and i'm not getting a comp right away, and my video is the latest and top of the line. Just PF2 only supports NVidia and ATI.
Now, let's follow the topic of what FPS I should get, not some 1500$ comp, k?

Check to make sure the fan is clean in your tower, so there is no lint in there...

BF2 should support your card. Mine's 128 and it runs laggily on mine...
Anywho, if you're sure you have 128 MBs, get Half-life 2.
