From what I've been able to find regarding your GFX card, it seems to be a budget card and so is your Celeron processor. Looking at 1.2 GB of RAM seems to indicate that you have a brand computer that uses the few resources available for all kinds of programs that are absolutely not necessary.

You could try to tweak and tweak and tweak and possibly achieve an improvement. Or else - your PC just isn't up to the task.

I hope I'm wrong.
