I have a Radeon 8500. ( I know its time to get a new card but I'm cheap) Here is my system info:
Operating System: Windows XP Professional (5.1, Build 2600) Service Pack 1 (2600.xpsp2.030422-1633)
Language: English (Regional Setting: English)
System Manufacturer: Supermicro
System Model: P4SDA
BIOS: Award Medallion BIOS v6.00PG
Processor: Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 1.80GHz
Memory: 1024MB RAM
Page File: 248MB used, 2216MB available
Windows Dir: C:\WINDOWS
DirectX Version: DirectX 9.0a (4.09.0000.0902)
DX Setup Parameters: Not found
DxDiag Version: 5.03.0000.0901 32bit Unicode
I play Delta Force Black Hawk Down and Savage. After I installed an auto update on BHD the game has become jerky. My ping rates are low, I use a cable modem, but it seems like when I run or do any type of quick movements in either game it hesitates every couple of seconds.
Could this be a hardware issue? I have reinstalled the game and it does the same thing, it is impossible to play any games like this. I have had some system locks recently that have made me turn the power off to reboot the machine and I am wondering if this has effected my card in any way? Or is it just past its prime? The card worked fine with the above games until I updated BHD.
Thanks for everyones help.
