This is your problem, many of the 6600, 7100-7300 and 8100-8400 cards have these difficulties (not only low in performance, but actual bugs/glitches). Try replacing the card with something like an Ati Radeon 4650 or NVidia GTS240 or better. Not only will the broken grafics be fixed, but the game will play much better as well. This has been mentioned in other threads as well. Do note that your Intel Pentium 4 3.0GHz processor will also limit your game performance however, so there is no need to buy a very expensive video card.

You can get a second hand one or even borrow one for a friend to test, but these cards often show corrupted images when being pushed, so please try with a mid-range or high-end card and report back here. I would really recommend trying an NVidia GTS240 or higher, or an ATI 3850/4650 or higher to test if this solves your problem, it has for many others.

No idea really, I live in The Netherlands. The 9500M seems to be (a lot) better than the 7300GS, what processor and amount of RAM does the laptop have? See below for the video card comparison.

CPU should be fine, in computer properties you will find RAM as well. 2GB or more should do the trick.

We already covered all this same ground last evening, about the so-elderly desktop PC, I don't why it was even mentioned here all over again.

You claimed you had the minimum video graphics covered, in spite of my warning that the symptoms sounded otherwise.  It was your own choice to avoid giving me the full rundown. 

With regard to the defective shader rendering problem, nVIDIA's 6n00 generation needed to be better than it was, really, to win back the lost trust after the debacle of the Geforce FX 5n00 (junk) generation.  Only the top card, the 6800, was really good, and there were two crippled junker versions of it sold (SE & XT).  The 6600 GT was limited to 128 MBs of VRAM, and really didn't handle shaders particularly well, especially compared to the Radeon cards. 

Some of the 6600 Vanilla cards and the 6200s shared the same silicon, and were all very weak, very slow, and as eventually showed up, had some shader defects built into them.  That wasn't true of all 6200s or all 6600s, but the defect was propagated into the various onboard chips from the 6100 to the 7150, and the several low end 7n00 cards such as the 7100, 7200, the 7300 GS, and the mobile Go 7400.  The 7300 GT was a cut down 7600 GS, without any serious problems, sitting near the top of its low end class, in fact, with the also very good (for its cost) X1300 Pro card. 

The symptoms of the Geforce defect vary from rendering a cloudy sky as a checkerboard, to a variety of semi-transparent textures (that are not supposed to be transparent).  As long as OpenGL, or the earlier Dx8 shaders (SM 1.4) are used, they work about the way you'd expect a $35 - $40 card to work. 

There was also a built-in firmware problem in a huge proportion of the Geforce 8n00 cards, that caused the fans' speeds to be managed badly, and in the case of many of the mobile versions, to kill the motherboards they were attached into.  It was correctable through software, unlike the unusual shader renderings. 

ATI managed to miss getting almost any possible benefit from nVIDIA's serious stumbling, through being late to market, and also seeming to have unlearned their driver creation skills between the high end 9800 and the X850 following it, and in particular, the X1800 XT after that.

Happy to hear it is working out for you. I believe you should best stick with your laptop for gaming, as the Pentium 4 desktop is outdated. You should upgrade your motherboard, processor and video card to really be able to play current games on it again, which is almost like buying a new computer. You know about the numbers game with video cards now, so if you decide to buy new components or a new PC, remember that a 3850 card is far better for gaming than a 4350 or in case of a laptop, that a 260m will do better than a 330m. When in doubt, always look at a site with benchmarks, there are many to find online, which will show you performance levels of many different video cards compared in many different games.

For your current problem with graphics not running smoothly first make sure you have recent enough WHQL video card drivers from the NVidia website. These can make quite a difference in some cases.

Your next best bet is turning off any Anti Aliasing and lowering graphic detail from very high to high or medium. For more information on the gain in frame rate (smoothness) compared to the loss in image quality please see the following article.

http://www.pcgamesha...-2009/Practice/

Finally, you might notice that none of these suggestions seem to help much, or even at all. In this case the processor in the laptop is probably the limiting factor. It is only a Intel Core2 Duo 2.0 GHz after all, which is not that much above the minimum requirements for Dragon Age (the Pentium4 3.0 GHz offers lower performance still, despite the higher clock speed). If this is the case, you will basically have to accept the performance you are getting as your processor is not going to get any faster and you cannot make the game less processor intensive. You could then however increase graphic details and image quality back up again until you find game performance is deteriorating by your higher settings so you have the best image quality your video card can afford.
