Thank you Leon,I'll check if the processor works. My last question is what the expected performance will be? I'd love to play this game good looking and smooth.

Okey so your advise is: buy a new graphics card, that's a bummer, some local pc shop owner told me this was good for playing arma 2. And if I would want to upgrade my processor I'd need a whole new motherboard? Buying a new pc seems senseless, I already have this and even if I have to replace a lot of parts, a newer pc would also have that or wouldn't it? Or just buy a new gpu and stick with the rest? I was already thinking about replacing my vista version with xp or 7 or something. Or how about this: HP Compaq Presario 5440NL nVidia GeForce GTX260 Synergy Edition (Zotac) AMD Phenom X4 9500+ 2,1 GHz (Quad-Core) AM2+ Socket 4GB DDR2 Asus Narra3/Nettle3, nVidia nForce 430 Chipset HDD: 750GB (7200 rpm) SATA Seagate 6x USB 2.0 Poorten 15-in-1 cardreader Windows 7 64-bit

Okey, but don't buy a other cpu you say? I didn't get the impression my processor was that great.

So that wouldn't work for me? And buying a new motherboard and cpu would work? Or would that just create more problems? Sorry for the questions you might find simple but I'm not really sure about what to do now.

Possibilities to upgrade the CPU depends on what type of motherboard I have? It's getting complicated now haha. I'm trying to figure out how much it would cost me to have my pc arma 2 ready.

Okey so upgrading to a 9800gtx would cost about 120 euros, and you recommend a newer cpu, and that would be like? And how much would this improve my performance? I now have what you see in my post, getting 4 gb ram wouldn't be a problem, the newer videocard neither. But what would I gain with it? I mean I'd love to play with maximum graphics and no lagg but is that realistic with some improvements?

Okey so the 1055t costs like 200 euro's here. That's not to much. The RAM could stay the same. The OS should be changed to a windows 7 or XP. And then the graphics card, what kind of card do you use? Or do you have a good alternative for the one I'm using now? Thank you for your help.

New CPU and OS would help. I would recommend..ahh, well, there are alot of options. Depends what you want to spend. What OS do you reccomend? I read somewhere that Windows XP 32 Bit would run Arma a lot better. And A better CPU? Same question. The graphicscard and RAM are allright? I can set it reasonable high but it runs, anoying. Not sharp, do you understand what I mean?

My pc runs it, but it's not too well. My specifications are: Windows Vistaâ„¢ Home Premium (6.0, Build 6001) Service Pack 1 Acer M5640/M3640 Intel® Pentium® Dual CPU E2200 @ 2.20GHz (2 CPUs), ~2.2GHz 3070MB RAM DirectX 10 NVIDIA GeForce GT 220 What should I upgrade to make it run better?
