Alright:

I fdisked my machine and re-installed everything I needed (I installed the latest drivers I could find for my video card). I tried to play Tribes (not Tribes 2) and the graphics are all ridged and the game runs very framey (this is not lag). I'm not sure what to do! Please help me, anything you say may be valuble information!

what videocard is it & what drivers are you using? you could try uninstalling the video drivers & reinstalling them as a first move.
what have you got running in the background as high cpu usage could account for "the game runs very framey"?
btw did you format the hdd after the fdisk?

S3 ViRGE-DX/GX PCI (345/385), I know I need a new video card, but this one worked for Tribes before.
Dunno' my motherboard, I didn't buy this computer and I don't know how to figure out the motherboard.
Windows Mellenium.
