Stop superbing your 9250. I actually think you can turn everything on, but your graphics cards doesn't even display it, like you said yourself.

Nothing you can do about it.

those are features your card doesnt support, so they cant be displayed
cant do anything about it, except getting a better card ROFL

i am sad for you that i cant show u how well every game runs at full settings and it shows them too but in u2 and mw the rain effect and shadow detail is just not 'available' in the gfx settings

Yes. That's because your card doesn't support those effects. Did you actually read any of the posts people made in here?

Your card can probably only run the available effects (which there are probably very little) at full setting at 1024x768 with a frame rate of 15-20. I'd like to see a an unedited screenshot from your computer of Most Wanted comapred to someone with a high-end computer. The bottom line is your computer is not a gaming computer for today's games, and you shouldn't expect great detail.

And here's another quote:

When evaluated in the proper context, the ATi Radeon 9250 is a decent video card. What consumers need to do is seriously consider what they are looking for in a video card. If playing graphically intense games is their main goal, the 9250 is obviously not for them. However, if improving their 2D desktop environment, whether it is for DVD's, photo editing or other applications, the 9250 will perform the task wonderfully. This is not to say that this card will not handle some of the newer games on the market, you just may have to turn down some of the eye-candy to achieve playable framerates.

This was from an article back in November 2004. Things have changed for the better since then so any miraculous expectations you may even dreamed of should have also been left 2 years ago.

Upgrade your video card and MEMORY/RAM. 256MB is below MW's requirements. I don't think you have SUPERB FPS in those games, max quality. Its impossible. You probably think that because you used to have some old radeon 8500 or GeForce MX440... Seriously. I have 1.7GHz Athlon XP with a Radeon 9600XT, and I only get around 25-30 FPS in MW and U2...

Upgrade you RAM, you definetly need more..........

But the RAM wouldn't give him rain anyway, so yeah.
