    I have a Acer Aspire 5100-3357 with 1.5gb of ram and an x1100. I can play fear with no shadows and no shaders at OK settings. What games would be playable on my pc. I like First Person Shooters

    The main reason you're having problems with gaming on that chipset is that its not designed for gaming; i bet my unit would struggle to play that game at any reasonable detail setting.

    Run 3d mark 05 and find out what score you get; i wouldn't want to play FEAR on a unit that scores less than 5000 points
