Hi!
As I don't know what video card you have? I have to assume this is an older or integrated video card?
That don't have this capability for multitexturing.
So unfortunatly. You will have to get a new video card.
What videocard, is a question of what budget you feel is resonable? and your PC hardware.
But as you seem to like action packed games, I will post some suggestions.
GIGABYTE GV-R96X128D Radeon 9600XT 128MB 128-bit DDR AGP 4X/8X Video Card - Retail $83.00
ATI RADEON 9800PRO 128M Radeon 9800PRO 128MB 256-bit DDR AGP 4X/8X Video Card - Retail $136.00
Or if you have a Powersupply 400W or more. (If you dont know? Unplug the PC, and open the case. Look at the PSU label. It should tell the Wattage).
Or if you are prepaired to upgrade the PSU also?
Upgrading the PSU, will make the PC work more stable. And you will have all the power you need for future upgrades.
ASPIRE ATX-AS520W BLACK ATX 520W Power Supply 115/230 V CB IEC 950/ TUV EN 60950/ UL 1950/ CSA 950 - Retail $55.00
Then, You will be able to use this very nice video card:
XFX PVT43ANDF3 Geforce 6600GT 128MB 128-bit GDDR3 AGP 4X/8X Video Card - Retail $154.00
Prices from newegg, web shop.

If you have a integrated card? Just check out the motherboard. So you really have got an AGP port for video cards, before you buy any new video card.
Download "Everest Home". And look under "Motherboard" and "Expansion slots".

One should be able to read the wattage on the exposed back of the PSU, depending upon the case.
