    Your graphics card is updated, and your processor is pretty old. You may want to consider upgrading to a new computer if you want to play higher end games. A computer with a nice new PCI-E graphics card, Core2Duo Processor, and 1~2gb of ram will run AOE3 on all high settings.

    I believe there are higher Pentium chips than Pentium 4.
    An upgrade may be worthwhile, however you can contact the company to first see if there is a problem.
    Good luck

    DO NOT buy a new processor or graphic card too soon. First, try to upgrade your memory RAM to DDR2 PC5300. Buy 2 Gb for a good result. I'm so sure that your problem will be solved only by doing this. Good luck!

    You have to keep your PC updated to play games.
    BTW I also play AOE,I play version 2 because that's the best.AOE-III sucks,played just one time and then removed and went back to AOE-II and still playing AOE-II
