A question about bugged Videocard

[Perfect Cell]

Hello everyone, I am a new FFXI player and i have found a problem regarding ffxi.
I have a pentium 4 2.4 Ghz 512 Ram and a video card that is a 128 Mb Ge force FX 5600.
Now the benchmark gives me 5000 points and in the game everything runs fluidly...until some atmospherical agent comes by.. it can be rain or fog.. it makes my computer slow DRASTICALLY it almost crashes.
I am not the only one with this problem, i m not here to assure if it s a problem or not.. i was kindly looking for someone who may have experienced my problem and somewhat solved it..

Hope to hear from you guys

bye!

lol it happens to all PC players (at least it happens to everyone i know).

Just turn off the weather effects, i forgot where the exact button is but its somewhere around 2nd menu>config>a menu in kanji that has a 1 in it. You'll be presented with several choices. 1 option with 3 choices at the top listed horizontally and 3 options with 2 choices at the bottome listed vertically. By default all the choices are on the left side (on). Just click the other option (off) to turn the weather off. That will turn the weather off and everything will be back to normal
