Hello, I just built a new system with 2GB of memory and a Geforce GTS 250 graphics card. When playing in single player, the frame rate is limited to 25 and everything runs smoothly. When playing on closed Battle.net, my frame rate rises to around 65, but the landscape is very jerky whenever I move. This seems to happen on both DirectDraw and Direct3D. Does anyone have any experience with this and have any advice? Thanks.

Why would you want VSYNC off?

Diablo 2 on a new system like you have should run at over 300FPS but a 60Hz screen means your computer is running 5x faster than needed. Nor would you want a higher FPS than that.

the 25 FPS was game play, not a video?

It's odd that your frame rates would be so low. Anyway, with VSYNC off use FRAPS and post again as I'm curious to see what you get because the without VSYNC a game will max out your GPU or CPU (single core), whichever comes first so it's a real waste of power and adds noise.

I keep an old Dell with Windows 98 SE for Diablo II. It has a Voodoo5 in it. Nothing beats Glide and FSAA for making that old game look and run as well as it can.
