ClockworkOrange 0 Posted December 29, 2002 one or two things you may want to do is find the directx patch for amd systems... and try the windows registry fix.... (see below) [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management] "LargePageMinimum"=dword:ffffffff a few things you may want to make shure is your running the latest chipset drivers for your mb, and the latest directx, and the newest videocard driver, and sound card driver.. (even your sound card can affect your ping) ... also try black vipers site to shut down any unnecessary services... im running xp pro with a geforce 4, and an asus a7v266 and play tfc all the time... black vipers site is here http://www.blkviper.com/index.html Share this post Link to post
