True on the background stuff. But don't knock all on board video. My cheapo $130 all in one motherboard with on board vid and sound plays all the new visual pinball tables with no problems at all. And handles mame no prob only MK2-3 cause the sound to crackle.

For whatever reason Asteroids runs dog slow on my system as well, and it's no slouch.  AMD 2400+.  All the other games run okay, but I haven't tried other vectors.  Try some other games and post here with your results.

What ver of mame are running?

JustMichael:

To run the vector games faster, add -nohws to your command line.  This turns off hardware stretching.

SirPeale:

Running .81u4, but I just tried it and it was just fine.  How odd, must have been bad a few versions back.
