Sadly you'll not get much gaming performance from an Intel 4500. If it was an integrated Nvidia / AMD you may have stood a chance playing the games you're trying to play like you did previously.

Something like a Radeon 5670 / 6670 can be had for ~$80 and is probably about the fastest you can get for that sort of cash.

Either up the budget or shell out for the Radeon that Hal9000 suggested. There's not much else I could recommend.

Any Intel video card is garbage, and really only useful for the most basic of games and graphics from what I've seen.

Hello Birojit ,

I use to Run FIFA 08 and FIFA Manager 08 in my Intel celeron Processor ( OLD PC ) with 1 GB RAM . Try these Out ,

While Running FIFA 08 , Turn off other On going applications using Task Manager

Check For any Virus , as they consumes more system performance

Try to run FIFA 08 with Low settings . Play with Minimum Configuration .

Go to the game folder in Windows Explorer. Open locale.ini in Notepad and change the line RESOLUTION=1280x1024x32 to a lower resolution, eg 800x600x32

And change the line WIDESCREEN=1 to 0 if you don't have a widescreen monitor.

Save locale.ini and try the game again.

We're aware, that's why we're suggesting - get a better video card.

Go and buy new graphics card buddy. I would go for NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT .

I would go for NVIDIA GeForce 9800 GT

No doubt a classic card in it's day and can be had for ~$60 or so. If Birojit just wants something to play the games he's mentioned and is not bothered about newer games, directX 11 and the extra ~30% performance, then I would +1 for the GT

like hal9000 said... you cant really play much graphic intense games like FIFA on an intel based chipset. I suggest you buy a graphics card
