OK, this is a weird problem. I have two nearly identical Dell 4550
Dimension computers (Pentium 4's). One has 768 MB Ram with a GE Force 4
MX420 (64 MB of memory) with Dell flat panel screen; the other has 512
MB Ram with GE Force FX5200 (128 MB of memory) and CRT monitor.
When I run EA Sports NHL Hockey 2003 on the machine with the smaller
memory GE Force 4 MX420 the game runs wonderfully. When I run it on the
machine with the FX5200 the skating action is choppy--the players will
stop skating for split seconds and then resume. It's quite annoying.
EA Sports suggests turning down the "player detail" to cure the choppy
video. Tried it, doesn't help.
How is it that a video card with twice the onboard memory as another
has trouble with jerky video?
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
