Sipimi Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 First, I would like to say hello to all of you. I discovered this site yesterday (even if I've been playing since the game's release!) and this is my first post. After more than a year without playing, I decided to re-install MVP 05 on my laptop. As I played my first dynasty game, I experienced a general slowdown of the game. The game lags often and causes me to miss my swing or my pitch. I tried various solutions before playing my second game (defrag, video driver, etc.) but it didn't change anything. I'm a little surprised as it was running smoothly on my old Pentium computer. I now use a laptop with a T7500 Dual Core processor and a 256Mb GeForce 8600 GT video card. Is Windows Vista the problem? Is it something else? By the way, I play with the latest official patch. I just want to say that this looks like a great website and a wonderful initiative from you guys! Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xiberger Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Welcome to the site! Did you install the patch? If not, that might be your problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sipimi Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 Welcome to the site! Did you install the patch? If not, that might be your problem. Well, I installed the game then installed patch #5 right away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maestro23 Posted January 16, 2009 Share Posted January 16, 2009 Your laptop, is that an integrated video card? How much RAM is on the system? Also, if you have any background programs running, you might want to turn them off. (Anti-Vir, Firewall). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sipimi Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 Your laptop, is that an integrated video card? How much RAM is on the system? Also, if you have any background programs running, you might want to turn them off. (Anti-Vir, Firewall). It's not integrated and has 256 Mb + 4 Gb of RAM memory. I can run recent games on it (NBA 2k9, Grand Theft Auto 4, etc.). I also turned off any background program. Question: Do I need to install patch #2 prior to installing patch #5 to fix bugs, because I went straight to patch #5... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
