Performance problem

[Megalos]

Very good advice above.

I would just add, to make sure Anti-Aliasing and Anti-Sotropic filtering settings are reasonably low on your G-Card if you haven't got it set to 'program preference' because even if your game setting for this is turned off it will still Anti-alias if it is turned on, on your G-Card.

Turn off campaign shadows! You don't need them and they will eat up your RAM.

The 'Effects detail' setting also does not need to be so high for the benefit it gives visually, so turn that down to low.

Also make sure you run your desktop at the same resolution you do the game (in your case 1024x768x32) otherwise you may see an adverse effect from that also.

Make sure you have recently scanned your hard-disk for errors and done a de-fragmentation on it (boring but it works).

Also you could turn off most of your background tasks and applications in task manager to eek out those last few K's from your processor, but if you do this, leave 'Explorer.exe' and everything under 'SYSTEM' well alone.

There are also some nice little free ware programs out there that free up system RAM, which in my own experience works wonders on my system (especially if your machine loads lots of things on startup).

I really see no apparent reason why your set up shouldn't run this game at close to full settings.

Hope this helps.
