If you could just replace the 9200se video card. I have a 128 8x 128 bit memory bandwith ATi 9200 video card and fs9 still struggles at times but other games don't.

That's pretty much what I'm getting. I'm interested to see your results.
 

What do computers and air conditioners have in common?...
They both will work perfectly, until you open windows.

Yup, that video card sucks. Most of them do. Save your dollars for the one thing that will make all the difference.
