If nothing else, I'd get myself some more RAM--at least another 128MB.
Depending on how much you want to put on your system, you may want to get a bigger hard drive.
I don't know what games you'll be playing, but if things get too choppy or slow at 1024x768 and up, you'll want to get a newer video card. For first person shooters, especially Serious Sam and Max Payne, you may find you'll probably want something better than what you have. I would get something newer, not necessarily a GeForce 3, but something a step or two up from that card.
 
The last two things really depend on what you'll be doing, but the best thing you can do is get more RAM. This will do you more good than a faster CPU.
 
Also, what you said is your motherboard is incorrect: that's your chipset, which I believe is the Via Apollo Pro 133A. It should say the manufacturer and model (e.g. Abit VP6) of your motherboard in the top half of the screen when you first boot up. It will be around the same place as the amount of RAM shown.

thanks for the reply
ya that motherboard thing is wrong
i forget what it is
well i do play 3d shooter games
like max payne and Quake 3 arena
but i play them in 800*600*32 bit
and i like it
 
for my video card i just got this from a friend..which i payed $75.00 canadain for it
 
i used to own a voodoo3 2000 PCI
 
so i'm not going to get a new video card
 
 
for the ram part i'm planning to get up to 384mb of ram
 
and maybe a 40gb hard drive
 
 
what do you think about it ???
 
for my motherboard is says:
 
BIOS Manufacturer : Award Modular BIOS v4.51PG
BIOS ID : 07/16/1999-693-596B-W977-2A6LGTGBC-00
BIOS Date : 07/16/99
BIOS OEM Signon : TRM-P6PRO-A+ V1.01
BIOS ROM Size : 256K
Chipset : VIA 82C691 rev 67
Super I/O Chip : Winbond 83977EF found at port 3F0h
 
just found out

When you boot up, that's all it says on screen?
Hmmm...You'll have to crack open your case and look between the PCI slots to see.
One work of advice: apparently, the 21.80 dets have the same refresh rate problem under Win2k/XP, but the NVRefresh rate fix doesn't seem to work. You may want to have an older version on hand for the time being.

i have no problem with my refresh rates in winxp

"Maxtor 6GB(5400 rpm)Hard Drive"
 
Are you kidding?????

no i'm not

Not a bad system. The thing that would probably help the most in most games would be a newer video card.
 
Most games will run ok in that 128 after the paging is worked out, but another 128 would definatley help, not just in games but in general as well. If you play Diablo II, I'd definatley reccomend more memory, that game seems to hog it up more than any other, but most FPSs will do ok without.
 
And a larger HD would be nice, not just for the size, but also the speed.

thank you for the repley
 
well i'm going to get 1 more stick of 128mb of ram
and maybe just a 20gb hard drive
 
for my video card i'm going to keep it cause i just got it from a friend for $75.00 dollars
 
ta ta

Definately get a bigger hard drive. 6GB just can't cut it.
 
For a new graphics card I would suggest a GeForce2 MX400. You can pick them up for about $95 pretty much anywhere.

i just got my tnt2 ultra diamond monstor agp 2x for 75.00 bucks
last month
so i want to keep this card for a long time
i keep my voodoo3 2000 PCI for 2 years
so i can keep this one lata
