Here's my system Specifications:
AMD Athlon XP 1600+ now @ 1.63GHz
ASUS A7S333 SiS745 DDR Motherboard
256MB PC2100 CLs Infineon DDR RAM
Leadtek GF4 MX440 64MB Video Card
SB Live! Sound Card
40GB Seagate Baracudda IV HDD
RealTek 10/100 PCI NIC
Windows XP Pro.
Anyways....I posted awhile ago in the thread called "LeadTek GF4 Ti cards" about my problem......even though my card is not a Ti version.....i get similar symptoms......
Games do not run smooth.....there choppy/stuttery almost all the time.....It's always way above 30fps too..(which is considered the minimum for being playable) whether its Half-Life, Unreal Tournament, C&C Renegade, RTCW....anythign requiring OpenGL or Direct3D...
Also...with 2D Performance in windows its ok.....only tiem anythign messes up in windows is when i click on the OpenGL, Direct3D or nView tab in the display properties....when i click on them, it takes FOREVER b4 it actually comes to the properties for each.....also...when in games....sometimes the game will lock up....like i cant move my man....everything around em is still working, peopel r still gettign shot...soudn still works.....i lock up though....
I've tried everything now....from Re-installing windows....any patches/updates/fixes possible...all windows updates...newest nVidia driver r on right now 30.82...ive tryed 29.42's and the oen previous....no difference......BTW its not overclocking thats effectign it either....i've tryed running at defualt speeds and even at 1050Mhz which is 100Mhz FSB....no difference......
Any help would be MUCH appreciated!
