Go search on google for some basic computer guides...you don't need more "GB's", that doesn't affect how your computer runs really. Your computer most likely has a bad video card or not enough ram, and you'd need to purchase more.

The problem is not to do with GB thats just a bigger unit than MB for example 1024 bytes= a kilobyte and 1024Kb=a megabyte and it justs continues likes that. I think the problem is not how many "gb's" you have because you have about 30x more than is needed. The problem is more than likely to be your graphics card or the amount of available RAM. Try a system spring clean (not a program) and just uninstall everything that you don't need and don't use anymore. First off, post us your system specs so as to have a closer look,
thanks,

p.s. see you corrie!!!!!-you posted two mins before I posted this! Evil or Very Mad

I guess people must have lots of money to buy all this ram for FS when it's redundant. Its not Photoshop or Video Studio. Next time ya start up FS, look at Task Manager and see how much its eating up...if it's over 250MB then you have a mem leak somewhere...avg is 160-200MB for Xp OS.
FS will never even come close to seeing that ceiling of 1GB of ram. Most likely the case of a CPU/Gfx card inferiority complex. As mentioned, post up your sys specs and we'll have a go at it.

Post up complete specs. Telling us how much ram you have without anything else does nothing. CPU/Ram/Gfx card...just as Corrie has in his signature there. More info you provide...more we can help ya out.
