Be sure and try OpenGL mode as well as D3D. I find OpenGL to provide
better color and frame rates. Also be sure and get the latest drivers from
www.ati.com.
Good Luck,

I'm gonna install latest drivers tonight.
FWIW, 3DMark2001 ishowed an improvement from 3100 to 6300.
I'm running an AMD 1ghz with 768mb RAM.
BTW, GPL runs fine as well.
