I'm running Blender on a 2.67 GHz P4 with 512 mb of RAM and an ATI Radeon 9200 card with 128 mb of RAM and having (what I consider to be) serious speed problems. At times I'm waiting ten to fifteen seconds for an action to show up on the monitor and it's just not practical. I've heard Blender sometimes has problems with ATI cards and mine isn't exactly a top-of-the-line one, but I would expect it to do better than this. Other modelling programs run great on this system. I've got the latest drivers. Anyone having this problem? Know of any possible solutions? Thanks.

In other news, I was fiddling around with the cylinder block file found in the tutorials section and the program ran like a dream. Explain that one.

Are there 3rd party drivers that are better than ATI's? I had some Omega drivers, but Halo squirrelled out on me and made me restart; after switching to ATI drivers it worked fine.

(halo uses directx, and does seem to work better on the 3.10 drivers though. THough for opengl, ati cards are in general not great)

Have you tried the new Catalyst 4.1? I've read of OpenGL problems with the 3.10 set, and I too noticed that since installing 3.10, Blender has been a bit sluggish. I'm waiting for Omega to release a set based on 4.1.

No, I haven't tried that, but I will. Thanks for the input.
