Problem with NFSU2

Archived from groups: alt.games.need-for-speed (More info?)

Hi all,

I have NFSU2 running on a laptop P4 1'6GHz, 512 RAM, ATI Mobility Radeon
7500 and Windows XP.

I have all settings to the low requirements, and the game works fine. But a
few minutes later, the game starts to run very slow without aparent reason.
At 2-3 fps.

The RAM used when it works fine its 70MB. When it start to go slow uses
125MB (165MB with the drivers provided by the laptop manufacturer).

Anyone know the reason?

thanks

I discard it. It's a laptop, but I use it as a normal PC because the battery
doesn't work . I have the power management configured like a normal PC.

I supose that the problem is the OS. I think that the use of 165MB of RAM is
not normal.

thanks

well, the problem is fixed.

There was a heat disipation problem of the ATI chip. I opened the laptop to
limits that I didn'twant to reach , I cleaned it a lot and used Thermal
Compound. Now works fine

thanks
