imataqito Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 i just got this game after weeks of agonizing waiting. Everything installed fine but EVERYTHING is slow! I don't just mean the game, I mean the front end, cut scenes...everything runs like molasses. I can't do anything. I have all my drivers updated and killed most of my background programs including my anitvirus. PLEASE, someone help me out here my specs: athlon 64 3000 epox 8kda3j nforce3 mobo 512mb pc3200 ram 200 gb hard drive ati 9800 pro w/ omega 5.1s edit: 200 gb not 2000 gb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imataqito Posted March 4, 2005 Author Share Posted March 4, 2005 8O Do you have the latest vid card drivers oops i meant 200. i'm gonna try loading the latest 5.2s from ati but i've never had a problem with the 5.1s from omega.

spitoon Posted March 4, 2005 Share Posted March 4, 2005 Tou didn't mention your controller, but if you have one, try unplugging it and see how the game starts up. In MVP '04, for some reason, I had a problem with my controller (when re-installing, or changing to a new one) and the game would litterally crawl along at 1 FPS and less...uninstalling and reinstalling the controller usually worked... This happened a few times when I was trying to change controllers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
