Well as I'm short of cash and my motherboard is really crappy (something wrong with AGP I think).
Should I buy HL2 and play it with really bugged framerate (FPS is always good but everything slows down), this affects many games, Halo (inside buildings), Gothic (when transparent textures (textures with alpha channels near) (those are the worst ones) and a little bit to every game with sprites (CS: Smoke (on close distance), Black Hawk Down: Smoke (on close distance)) or buy a new mobo that should solve this problem... or is the problem actually in the 3D card (processor tested, 3D card tested with a slow computer (1GHz Thunderbird)).
Surprisingly Max Payne 2 works perfectly
Yeah I'm expecting better solution to this problem, if someone has had same problem and have fixed it.
AMD Athlon XP 2200+ (not overclocked, silver stuff (sorry don't remember the word and got no translator program here) between the processor and heatsink)
MSI GF 4 Ti4200 64Mb (also silver added)
Problem mobo: A7S333
512MB PC2100(266MHz) DDR
Sound Blaster Live! Value (removing this card helps a little, but not enough)
Antec 330W Truepower (switched from 235W power =P, helped only a little bit)
