It is just so irritatingly slow!! The ball hardly moves and the sound sucks! A friend of mine told me that it's because of my computer. The fact is that when I bought it , the advertisement said 'VGA & Sound card on board'. What exactly does that "on board" mean?

it means you have sound and graphics embedded on the motherboard, I would get a new directx9 compatible gfx card

directx8 compatible is OK
like TI4200:rolleyes:
