Thanks for all your help...I got the FPS to about 68FPS.  Can someone please 
let me in on what is the OPTIMUM setting for the NVDIA settings to get doom 
to run at its best.  Here are my specs for my machine.

3.2GHz P4 LGA 775
2GB Kingston DDR2 PC-4200
ASUS P5GD2 Deluxe MOBO
MSI 6600 GT 128MB PCI Express
Windows XP Home installed on a 74GB WD Raptor

Thanks for all your help.

Robin
