It's my video card, apparently. And I can not play shit on this. While games like Company of Heroes and C&C3 work well on the low settings, I can not play any games slightly over that on a higher setting. I recently installed Medieval 2 on my computer and it can barely run the map screen well, let alone the massive battle sequences.

Anyway, can anyone reccomend a cheap(ish) better video card for my cpu?

I recently recommended this card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127273 to a friend of mine as a temporary card until she can afford a good one. For $25 bucks, it is supposed to be able to play team fortress 2 and portal.

I was using a Radeon X1650 Pro for a bit, and it ran TF2 just fine. I think the PCI Express version only cost around 50 bucks, it has pixel shader 3.0 and is a 128 bit card, I recommend it for anyone on a budget.

I don't know what the significance of the 'LE' is, but my previous card was a GeForce 6800 and it ran TF2 and Portal adequately (my newer card runs them much better, obviously). If SOAD's recommended one can run them as well, presumably better than my old earlier model, for only $25, you really can't go wrong.

Seconding this. I used to have a 6800, and while it wasn't brilliant on newer games, it ran Source games just fine, as well as pretty decently graphic'd stuff like Blood Money and the various Splinter Cells.

I have a Geforce G150"SE" nforce 1 something. It plays both supreme commanders fine, and im pretty sure that your card is intergarted like mine so that means CRAP
