Question Acceleration of the hardware?

Been having a problem where my computer freezes when scrolling a page when on line. Phoned my tech help line who, after much research, have told me my graphics card (Intel 740 AGP) is kaput. I've now turned the Hardware graphics acceleration off, which has cured the crashing problem. I cannot notice any difference in the graphics on the games I play, can anybody explain in layman's terms what effect I should experience with the hardware acceleration off. In other words, what was it doing for me in the first place? Thanks in advance.
