Help with game slowing

[hanky]

Hi there,

I only just bought the game. It works fine and goes well, but as soon as I put the flash light on or if there is lots of sounds, the game slows down and makes it really hard to play. Would appreciate any help please?

I have a pentium 4 with 2.93 GHz processor running Windows Xp with 700 MB of memory.

Display card?
Driver?

p.s. When will your brother Panky join Halflife2.net? I am looking forwards to see him!

Unknown video card, but has a Intel GMA900 video chipset? Does this help?

My brother Panky has many friends online

What does that mean???

It means you should consider purchasing a good quality video card. On-board graphics systems (such as yours) are normally quite poor.
