Does using 16mb graphic card slows down the system ?

CPU specifications:

800mhz proposer
80gb hard drive
512 mb RAM
24bit colors

sadly such system may not be sufficient for regular work . if you are using windows OS on it then may be better to switch to Linux (may be Ubuntu) ..
however you may try with regular removal of unnecessary files, temporary files .. etc ( use ccleaner like utilities .. ) ; defrag harddisk , defrag RAM ..

It depends on what you're doing. If you're doing something graphically intensive the graphics card will probably "share" some ram. That's what will slow your pc down

You're using a late 90s computer, time to upgrade

Run PuppyLinux or Damn Small Linux. Ubuntu would lag worse then windows XP would. (Ubuntu is not lightweight at all.)

No i just try to play youtube video at 360p and plays fine without graphic card, but with graphic card it slows down the system :confused:

This. My phone is faster than that.

And when that is the case, then it is kind of sad...

By the way, it is not a 800mhz -proposer-.... Processor

thanks for the spelling but what about the Issue ?

^ may be that graphics card is using more resources instead of making graphics rendering easy for the computer processor !!
OR it is not suited well for computer system - OR it might be faulty ... recently I've faced such issue AND returned graphics card for a loss ...
