Sounds like a video card driver issue. Might help if you supply basic hardware in your setup and what video drivers you're using.

Actually, the video card is a TNT2.  I am thinking that could be the issue.

I doubt it even meets minimal specs to run AH.

Heck, even a Geforce2... or a 4400 or something. That I can see (maybe). I ran a 4400 GTI for a while and it was chugging badly on reduced settings, after Ah2 came out and all the graphical enhancements later.

I'm shocked that it even loaded on 5ander's PC at all!

It's not that simple, though. He might be stuck.

His card is at least 10 years old. That means his computer probably is, too. Nothing available NOW is really going to work so well on something from back THEN, if you see what I mean.

So he might be able to find an AGP 4x card, but he's going to be limited to about a Radeon 9550 or so. AH doesn't run so well on that.

I had to find a replacement card for my sister's older PC, and she was limited to 4x AGP, and the best readily available card I could find was the 9550. There might be others, but nothing very modern.
