"new computer, got it on march. Not really good at computers so if you have to explain anything, pls explain it like I'm a 10 year old :)

Not really an active gamer, but Ive been playin Soldier front (http://sfront.ijji.com/) a lot since summer started.And lately, for the past 2 days, Ive been getting fps lag. My fps is usually 31-32 (which is good in SF). but lately it goes down to 28-22 on occasions. Its annoying the hell outta me. Crosshair gets HUGE, when the opps. even pointblank, im missin like hell.

I did find this one wierd tho. When Im host, i kik 250-500 pingers out after game. played sum games without anyone having more than 200 and the FPS went down only one time. It stayed on 31-32 most of the game. :|

Graphics card is - Integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 3100

PCs Inspiron 530s. heh, like I said, casual gamer."



THAT was the original problem. Someone on the gaming site's forums told me to install a driver.

I did it. The FPS is back to normal (32-31), but now 30-50% of the screen is like blinking whenever im on sf. Not just ingame but even when im just on the lobby/room it blinks. It blinks really fast, not even a second, but it happens frequently enough that it bothers me a lot ingame.

Posted this on the forums, he told me to install some other drivers and the problem's still there. he hasnt been on in a while so I decided to post this on other forums and ended up here.


Please help. GREATLY appreciate it. :)
