refresh rates with fps counters

[phill21]

im having probs when im playing unreal tournament.,..
im running the game in anything up to 1600 x 1200 x 32 and in all resolutions, i getting the same problem.
the game doesnt go over what the monitor is refreshing at, before it might go up to 500+ fps or might go as low as 50 - 100 fps if there was a lot of action on the screen...
does anyone know of anything for me to stop having this problem? its starting to bug me !! is anyone else getting this problem?
im running a tbird 1.1ghz @ 1.34 Ghz (134fsb, does work all the way upto 139...) on a KG7 with a geforce 2 ultra and 256 of DDR PC2100 memory.. ive all the latest drivers installed (that i know of) 4in1 are @ 4.37 and the nvidia graphics drivers are at 23.11... all the v-sync's are disabled... has anyone any ideas about this??

if all else fails... kick it and if it goes wrong, say it wasnt you...

Turn off v-sync in your Direct 3d or OpenGL settings, that should solve your problem.

According to benchmarks of the original Unreal (UT based on the same engine), there is a dramatice frame drop (-20 frames)when running this game with a Radeon8500 on Windows XP! On win98 and ME the game runs +20 higher. It is just bad luck that the ATI drivers don't push this game in WinXP. That is your problem if that's you OS, if not, make sure you have FSAA off and check your bios setting to make sure you have AGP 4x enabled and any other botttleneck you may have.
