    Ok so let me give you my specs and i want to know exactly what you think i need to upgrade to run hitman. Currently it runs in a very laggy, slow, unfortunate manner so any help would be appretiated.

    My Computer:
    ---------------
    Operating System: Windows Xp Home Edition
    CPU: Pentium 4 2ghz
    Ram: 1gig DDR
    Graphics: ATI Radeon 9800 Pro Saphire eddition
    Sound: Dunno doesn't really matter
    Optical Drive: DVD-Rom
    Hard Drive: 5.98 GB free space

    Recommended System Specs for game:
    ------------------------------------
    Operating System: Windows Xp Home Edition
    CPU: Pentium 4 2.4ghz
    Ram: 1gig DDR
    Graphics: ATI X800 series, nVidia GeForce 6800 series
    Sound: Dunno doesn't really matter
    Optical Drive: DVD-Rom
    Hard Drive: 5 GB free space

    So what I would assume is I need a new graphics card by the looks of it. I was thinking

    BFG GeForce Ultra Video Card (6800)

    If this would solve my problem that would be great to know I dont want to bust out 500$ for something that wont work.

    Thanks for your time.

    it should run, i don't see why it shouldn't, except for the fact you got a 2ghz p4. make sure you got the latest direct x and drivers for your gfx card. also, wat settings are you running it at?

    It should be running okay. Try turning the settings down and ensuring you dont have anything open while running it.

    Does your current HDD only have 5.9GB free at the moment? That sounds pretty full (defrag or upgrade time?) to me.

    I Agree w/ LORD, a full or undefragged HDD can cause problems with load times....
