Half-Life uses TRUFORM by default on all Radeon cards. Since the only card to currently support TRUFORM in hardware is the Radeon 8500, all other Radeons have to do it in software (i.e. on the CPU). This, as you can well imagine, is what's killing your framerate (I'll assume you've heard of TRUFORM). To turn TRUFORM off, type
Code: 
ati_subdiv 0
in the console. To get to the console, hit ` in-game (` is to the right of the number 1 on your keyboard, not '). If the console doesn't come down, then you need to exit the game and edit your Half-Life shortcut to enable the console. To do that, right click the shortcut, select properties and on the line where it says
Code: 
c:\games\half-life\hl.exe
(or whereever you installed halflife) append this
Code: 
-console 1
so that now the command line should read
Code: 
c:\games\half-life\hl.exe -console 1

Can some mod PLEASE make this sticky
