I really need help Lag

I really need help configuring MS so that I can run it smoothly.

I have 4GB ram and 250 GB hard drive. I run MS on its lowest settings and it runs fine in FMs etc but I always lag so bad that I cant play in LHC and in towns.

This leads me to believe it is my video card that is the problem rather than my RAM because it is only picture related things (attacks, NPCs etc) that cause me to lag really badly. Something else to note is that in town, after like 15 seconds of freeze frame action, it runs fine. I think during that time it is loading the map. However, in LHC it just freezes ( I am currently stuck there ).

Anyone have similar problems or solutions for this? Or anyone knowledgeable about video cards and how much of one is required for MS?

Yeah I don't run any other programs when I attempt to start maple up. It's the only thing.

Is it processor or graphics card that is responsible for skill lag? Or both? Lol

The black cipher thing didnt work. Also I do play in windowed mode =(

I am legit stuck in LHC because I log in and immediately lag out.

I get the same problem. I also think my video card is the issue, but i don't know of a good one for Maple.
Just run maple on windowed mode. That helped me tremendously.

get more ram and close as many backround programs as you can while you play
