So, I recently downloaded Skyrim from Steam, and when I tried to play the game, it was SUPER laggy, like, unplayable laggy, so I did a little googling and found out that my graphics card was a bit on the low end. I currently have an nvidia geforce 9200, and the requirements state that I need at least NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 or higher. So, once again, I did more research, and found that my PSU wasn't high enough to run that card. I have an Acer Aspire X3 AX3950-UR30P with Windows Xp. So I've been looking around, but I'm technologically illiterate (if you couldn't tell), and I'm more confused than ever. This is kind of my last resort, so any helpful comments would be appreciated. I'll give you my current stats, since thats what caused me problems in the first place.
Microsoft Windows XP Professional Service Pack 3
AMD Phenom 9650 Quad-Core Processor (which runs at 2.3 GHz)
3.0 GB's of RAM
GeForce 9200
NVIDIA High Definition Audio
and 829.7 GB of availible space
btw, my max PSU is 220 W. Thanks in advance!
