rct 3 demo help!!

ok...im running a gateway 2.6 gig hardrive, with 512mb of ram, and a nvdia geforce fx 5200, and it is so laggy!!!! and when i ride in coaster cam its laggy to! i dont know wats wrong cuz i spent over 2 grand on my computer and upgraded it with a better graphics card...and video card i think...so someone plzz plzz help me!

A 2.6 gig hard drive? Looks like someone needs an upgrade... Taking into account that that was most likely a typo, and you meant 2.6 ghz processor, the problem may be that your using an nvidia graphics card when the game is made to run on an ATI Radeon. Also, you may have set the game onto full settings (which lags my computer at times, which is a 3.0ghz, Radeio 9800 Pro).

Actually, the problem is that the fx5200 is pure crap [:)]

I made my puter about a year ago.. It has an AMD Athlon motherboard 2100+ which is really a 1.7 ghz - 512 mb ram (old ram) - 64mb geforce 4 mmx - 40 gig hard drive.. and on full settings whether watching the park and rides or in coaster cam, it does'nt lag at all.. I think there's a lot going for making your own comp..

how many other games are there on the computer?

Apart from apps for my music and art progs - UT2003, Blitzkrieg, all the Sims, Sudden Strike 2, Both Cossacks 1 & 2, Total war (medieval), War of the Ring, NoLimits and a bunch of other stuff..
