How can i make my games hang's and Lagg's go away!!!!!wahhhh

Toggle sidebar Toggle sidebar
How 'bout telling your system specification so people get a chance to know what they are asked to give advice on?
 
P4 3.4 HT, 2X SPEK TEK DDR2 4200 533 AND 2X EXTREAM MEMORY 4200 533 X2 NX 7600 GT X2 250GB HARD DISK please help me iam a newbie?can i overclock my system?how will my hangs and laggs go away?
 
My bios is on default mode i didn't overclock it yet..i dont think turning down the grphics is not the answer cause i have quit a good rig???other alternatives?
 
Well it looks like you are well with in the system requirements for the game. If you are playing online, firewall software could be an issue. Also I would go into start --->run ----> type msconfig ---> and see what is running at startup. I have been playing doom 3 and the only time I had problems was when my antivirus started scanning. I have played the game online in multiplayer and so far have not had any problems, except for the fact that I get killed before I can even get a higher end wepon.
 
my resolution is 1024x768 actualy it lags a little not that much only when im entering shadowd rooms and runing with too much enemy on my tail but on my specs it should run smoothly.correct me if im not?
 
turn off background programs ie aim winamp or watever
scan for spyware/adware
tweak your windows xp (just look up tweakhound theres a nice guide there)
tidy up ur bios
tidy up diskspace
change resolution and quality on ur games

i hope this helps
 
Damn! the resolution is too high?i have only a 17" monitor could it work on that resolution?please also teach me how to set my bios to make my pc faster.


p4 3.4 overclocked
p4n sli board
2gb memory
250gb hard
x2 nx7600gt overclocked
2 optical drive
atris 500T extream power supply
thermaltake cooling system
tigermax casing
 
yeah that game dosn't need any AA or AF, just turn that to zero and that might help. Also check you have the latest drivers, and make sure your not forcing AA or AF. If you are set the setting to let the application decide.

(WTF when did i get member/100 posts....)
 
Settings that make games look good, or lag, or both....

If you right click on your desktop and get to your nvidia control panel you can change their settings to : off/application controlled/forced values.
Try setting yours to aplication controlled/off depending what you have already.
Also check inside titan quest, make sure vsync is off, anti-anilising is off. You should be able to play with max everything else though.
 
Thanks dude il try it later when i go home for work.i already ordered 2 new MSI 8800GTS 320MB OC edition,is this a good card?in performance and Quality..??i have X2 NX7600GT on a 2GB memory and HT P4 3.4 CPU i think its enough to make titan quest run smoothly without a glitch, correct me if im wrong.please advise?....
 
Yeah, the 8800gts is an extremely fast card compared to your 7600gt, although 2 of 'em if overkill, one is more then enough for Titan Quest.

Your psu doesnt have enough power though, you'll need a new one.
 
As strange as it sounds, try taking one of your grahics cards out.

SLi is well known to be CPU bottlenecked and even with the very fastest processors on some games only shows small increases over a single card.

Having such an old (slow) processor with sli could be bottlenecking your CPU when it comes to difficult areas that place the cards under strain. If all the cpu cycles are used up by the cards then not only will it lag the graphics but it could lag the physics as well as it could be leaving no cycles free to run the game. I'd try experimenting with a single card only and see if that helps the lag. It might be that you might have to run lower settings or put up with a little graphical lag in order to stop the freezes / pauses from your system running out of CPU power.

Forget about Dual MSI 8800GTS 320MB OC Edition.
Get an OC'ed 8800GTX instead.
as apt403 said you`ll need a new power supply if you are to upgrade your Graphics Cards.
 
Please advise me of the correct set up for my system.kindly please help!!
i already spent a lot i dont have a deep pocket to spend too much, but i love computer and gaming so much thats why i put my passion building it not just for geting my time of it's my life!!!!wahhhhh!!!
 
So P4 HT 3.4 is a slow CPU for Sli??it's surppresing my video card capabilities?? your saying that 1 card is better than 2
(on some other games??)i didn't upgrade to sli just too be like that?
 
your power supply is the BIG problem for upgrading your video card.
off course you may need to upgrade your CPU too but first of all you need a better PSU.
 
I agree with Farhang, first a more powerful psu, then a new cpu.

Which retailers/online stores can you buy from? I have a couple power supplies in mind that would work for your system, but they might not be avalible where you are.


The P4 you have is going to bottleneck your gfx card's performance, especially with an 8800gts. From what I can tell your current mobo doesnt support the Core 2 Duo line-up, and those are the only Intel desktop cpu's that are worth getting ATM. So a new mobo will be required when you upgrade your cpu.
