Nevertheless, it wouldn't hurt to update your drivers. Outdated ones can screw up things, too.

Not exactly...

On my older computer I had better success (as in, slightly higher framerates) using older video drivers than newer ones. No idea why, but it worked for me.

My CPU usage is just 58%. But i cant still play the game normally..

I installed yesterday directx. (if it was really directx). And i switched to directx on OSU options.. but i still got the popup message of video card error.

What is your video card?

What video card?
Do you mean in the device manager? The one with display adapters? If yes, then my video card is, Intel(r) 82856G Graphics controller.

Also if you forgot, I installed latest version of directx.

Having DirectX does not mean having support for the shaders osu! use in DirectX mode.

I already did try changing the option to directx. but I still got the "video card error" popup message.

In OpenGL mode, i cant play since the mouse pointer is so HARD to control. And when i say hard to control, you cant catch up with the circles in the game.

This is definitely a problem with your drivers or hardware that you are probably not capable of fixing alone (you need some degree of computer knowledge to combat these kinds of isssues). Have you tried fullscreen by chance?

Try checking your video driver's options. Disable triple buffering if it's enabled.

I just discovered something.
That some beatmaps arent laggish or slow when played! Like I played Black Rock Shooter and it wasnt slow. But of course, it still cant finish the song..
