@hollzcrystalz Of course you shouldn't have to play on low settings if your computer can use higher ones. When you changed the settings, did you do so from the Main Menu and then quit to desktop before loading a save? If not, pleae try that now. Loading a save immediately after changing most of these settings, or changing them while a save is already loaded, can cause all sorts of issues.
If that's not the problem, please run a dxdiag and attach it to a post.
