First thing *I'd* check is that you're not using a VESA driver. That
*will* eat processor time, since it's getting the processor to do a lot
of stuff that a graphics card will do much more efficiently.

Hope this helps,

James.

Thanks. This motherboard has the graphic card built in- I just plug
the monitor into the back of the m/b. Note that it has an onboard
soundcard and an onboard ethernet port as well, both of which I
replaced with PCI devices. The onboard sound is trash, and I'm not
sure about the onboard ethernet.

So, how can I check if I'm using a VESA driver?

Thanks for all the help and patience.
