ff on cmr2

what system spec do you need if you want to run ff on cmr2 ive got a pIII800 @982 768mb pc133 Geforce ddr..... and when you enable ff the game turns into a slide show......is it me needing an OS rebuild or does it have v.poor ff implementation? oz.

The FF in CMR2 is indeed nothing special, but it shouldn't slow your game down like that. Sounds like some kind of driver incompatibility to me... Pretty smooth here: PIII-650 @866 256Mb pc133 V3 PCI LWFF v3.62 drivers.

Well my computer died last night... so i'll find out when I rebuild it....... 2 years with the same OS ...about 4 different graphic cards and 3 different mobos..... and god knows how many little patches and stuff to really screw up the registry>>>> oz.

standard operating procedure for me is to wipe out my c:\ drive about once a year and re-install windows. I have 'most' of my important programs on another partition and a good set of drivers also...so the wipeout isn't that hurtful. But formatting and restarting windows fresh will often lead to improved system perfomance. dave henrie "oz" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:9c14ei$r6e$[email hidden]... > Well my computer died last night... so i'll find out when I rebuild > it....... 2 years with the same OS ...about 4 different graphic cards and3

Yep, but a deltree c:\windows is enough, no need to delete the whole c:\ drive :) Andre

I think CMR2 likes ATi Radeon cards... I have PIII933/384MBPC133/Radeon32DDR/LWFF There is a slight performance hit with FF but not much. Dale.

but if you see my start menu you will laugh at the size of it..... I mean its got its own time zone!!!! Ill just make sure ive got all my save games... d/l all the latest drivers And start again.... on a spare Scsi3 drive....that should do it! oz.
