First of all make sure you have latest VIA 4in1 drivers installed, depending which motherboard you have.

If its amd+via board you have to install only amd agp driver and the rest from via 4in1.

Secondly your problem is your CPU - sorry but its true.

You need at least 1 Ghz processor to take a full advantage of the geforce3 (actually it becomes limited around 1.4Ghz)

Over Clock the Video Card.
What Brand GF-3 did you get?
The Elsa 920 will need a Blue Orb but with it you can realy crank it up.

overclocking the vid card wont do squat, to processor is already a severe bottleneck.. if ya want to overclock something, overclock the processor.
