SpecialChild 01-21-2002 12:21 AM

Ok, so today i went out and got a comp.
Here it is:

P4 1.6
512mb DDR RAM
80 gig HD
32mb TNT2 AGP vid. card.
16x burner
16x DVD
etc..
etc..

ok so the first thing i got for my comp was medal of honor sp demo to see how kick ass it would run, so i got into the game and the screen started flashing and doing all this glitchy shit, then i restarted, and i played again, i did not get all the glitchy but the fucking game ran at about 10-15 fps
WTF y cant shit ever work good for me?

[AoD]Jobi1 01-21-2002 12:31 AM

TnT2 is prolly your problem. Weak card for this game. I would go with a g3 or a radeon 85oo. Just a suggestion...

SpecialChild 01-21-2002 12:34 AM

yeah thanks but my friend has same video card on his P3 800 and he runs at 40 fps, i get 10 fps with my 1.6 that aint right

[AoD]Jobi1 01-21-2002 12:36 AM

ya but are you guys running the same resolutions and in game settings?

[AoD]Jobi1 01-21-2002 12:41 AM

maybe download the latest detonator video drivers. Also make sure that all programs are shut down. Might help a bit. Other than that, I don't know.

SpecialChild, I've got the same Video Card as you and I get at most 30fps when nothing is happening BUT I can only get about 8-10fps when the fighting starts! And thats with 640x480 and the lowest settings!

It's the video card! I'm trying to save enought cash to get at a gforce 3!

Close isn't good enough unless you throw a grenade!

SpecialChild 01-21-2002 01:08 AM

To jobi1:
Yes, i am running on the very lowest of all video settings(friend runs on medium). It cannot be the video card, how does EA expect to sell MOH if you need at least a 64mb geforce2?
They are not gonna get shit for sales.
Trust me, i got better fps on my old 600mhz.

SpecialChild 01-21-2002 01:17 AM

could it be fucking windows xp?
theres no way in hell that you can have a 1.6, 512 megs DDR ram, 32mb TNT2 AGP vid.(i realize this aint great but shit it aint bad) and still get only 10 fps.
Could it have something to do with my sound?
Cuz i can hardly hear my sound anyway even with the sound all the way up.

Stiler 01-21-2002 01:27 AM

yes it could be your sound, try setting it to low quality and see if that helps. I have a 1ghz t-bird, 384 ram, 16mb tnt2, sound blaster live x-gamer and with everything on max the game runs smooth even in good battles. only thing i have a prob with is the smoke at the start and on tanks.

Assumption:
Your PC is not completely new, I can't imagine you bought a TNT2 of the shelf.

So most likelym, your bios has not been optimally configured for your pc. Reset to default and whip out your boardmanual to get it right.

Alternatively, upgrade your video card a Geforce2 is very very cheap and much much better than a TNT2.

Manny 01-21-2002 08:57 AM

People, it's the TNT2.

1.6 GHz...512 MB of Ram...and then such an oldi graphics card? It doesn't go. Not even a Geforce 2 does. Get a Geforce 3 Ti 200 for only 150 bucks. If you do that, expect the game to go like a hot knife through butter.

The graphics card is slowly becoming the most important part of any gaming machine. Face the future http://www.alliedassault.com/ubb/smile.gif

Definitely the card. More and more developers for the PC are developing for the newest cards (geforce 2 and 3). In the very near future, you won't be able to run any games without 64 Mb vid Ram.

Change the card.
Also, XP is a hog, especially if you have all of the toys turned on. Kill as much eye candy as possible, defrag your drive, then try again.

if anti-aliasing is enabled in vid card properties you will experience a huge performance hit with your tnt2.

since your friend has the same card try running the same version of video drivers as your friend and mirror his display settings.

you can also try the latest Nvidia detonator reference drivers available here, http://www.nvidia.com/

one more possibility, you may need to update your mobo chipset drivers.

do you know the manufacturer/model of your motherboard??

this info will help us provide you with motherboard chipset driver and bios setting recommendations.

if you dont have any docs with that info take the case side off and look for markings on the motherboard.

another alternative is to download sisoft sandra and look under the motherboard information tab.
