What version of Windows u using?...

It sounds like your windows install is screwed....

If you have installed the latest drivers and DirectX then it should show as working in DXDiag...

Since its not then its either Windows or hardware problems...

A format and reinstall will be the quickest way to check since you have tried other means and had no success....

Also, is the gfx card installed properly in System Properties?.... If so, what version of the driver does it show?....

or Return to Castle Wolfenstein

Could probably play it with max settings...

Was 1 of the best FPS on Xbox1....

Black and White 1 or 2... City building/RTS. Best games ever imo... On my 3rd playthru in 2 months..

Whats the point of buying a Unix word processor for playing games?....

Edit:

Cool, Does Aero work now?....

If you do have many problems, The 9.7 hotfix should work if ran in Vista SP2 compatability mode....

Info was in the other post link....

Or something like this... If its still there.....

Good for 135-140Mph... Supposedly....

How much time have u spent driving? Since ur 15 i guess not much?...

Why not learn to drive a normal car first then mod it?.... It took me ages to learn to drive my standard Cav Sri 16v on the limits after i passed my test...


Why not get a Corsa 1.4 Sport to start with... Then you can drop a small block 1.8 16v out of a Mk4 astra straight in using all th Corsa mounts when you need it....

Sending £4k or getting over 180bhp for ur first time driving is stupid and dangerous if you have never really driven a car much or had one balancing on the edge over 110..... It doesnt take much to overcook it and smash into someones new Evo or Ferrari.... Theres no Shift-P IRL.....

Quote from danthebangerboy :

Its is the radeon hd2600 pro, but the AGP version, which i think is the problem. Compatibilty mode didn't help either, still no go.

After a lot of pissing about the omega drivers do finally work and give me about 90fps in LFS, BUT, i lose the aero bit of win7, and to be honest it looks without it, so i am just gonna leave it looking shiny but with worse FPS until i build a new PC.

I have attached how i have got it looking like now, this is TOO cool!!!

EDIT:

You need the Hotfix version of Catalyst for AGP cards now... Hotfix Catalyst drivers will be on the ati website... You need version 9.7 for Win7 support i think... Catalyst 9.7 was only released last week and the hotfix version is just out...

For some reason the drivers dont come up in any search....

Does ur pc play LFS good before overheating? If put together properly and not too dusty inside then ur pc shouldnt overheat....

Have u just installed the Windows os or was it on th computer for ages? Also, is the wireless secure on the router?.. Someone might be stealing it n giving u a shit connection... How often do you disconnect? like every 2 mins or a couple o times a night?

Also, when was the last time u unplugged th wifi/modem from th wall? Turning them off/ unplugging them for 5 mins sometimes fixes line problems...

Shame u dont want an import... You could get a v6 twin turbo Galant 300bhp with under 70k miles for £4k... Or if u are lucky, find one of the 200 official Uk cars...

Volvo 850 T5R

Accord Type-R http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honda_Type_R

That sucks.... Get a different gfx card or mb... What size was th old card?

Idk, when i play LFS patch v or Unreal 1 i still get high usage on both cores... When playing games theres all the 3d audio drivers and gfx APis loaded and running to let the game work... Due to most functions not running direct on hardware then windows has to be the man in the middle...

I also dont think the biggest svchost shows its cpu usage at all.. When running sevices loaded into it, it still doesnt show usage in Task manager, Even tho it has high i/o operations all the time...

Also, when playing LFS i get about 40-50% total usage for the whole computer in Task Manager, tho the cpu gauge will show over 90% on 1 cpu and 40-50 on another... which is roughly 70-80% total usage...

The thing with cpu usage on more than 1 core when running LFS is the fact that Windows is still running while you play the game.... Theres the Audio Service, Network Service, Plug n Play and all the other services and drivers that make up Windows OS that still has to run to keep the system live... Thats what shows usage on other cores while running LFS or other single threaded apps...

Even trying to OC the P4 would be pointless... If your motherboard supports 800mhz fsb and HT then get a P4 3.4HT for £10 off ebay..

Its what im using atm and get 70-110 fps when on th move with 4xAA and 8xAF with about 20fps for 10 secs on a busy grid... your gfx card is much better than my 7600GS too...

Quote from G!NhO :

Idiots that don't look out on the autobahn in Germany, you drive with 200kmh through the fast lane and suddenly some stupid german/dutchman wants to overtake someone and doesn't look good enough in his mirrors so they just pull up infront of you so you have to brake very hard not to hit them.

Like: http://videos.streetfire.net/v ... -throttle-with_694686.htm

What is ur AA and AF settings at?.. Looks well higher than 4xAA...

Those idiots that sit in the fast lane on the motorway doing 62mph holding the country up.... If its a guy then he is doing it just to piss u off... If its a woman then they have no idea what all the problems about.... ITS THE PASSING LANE!!! not a lane so you can get a good scenic view of the other side o the road....
