Need For Speed 2 - Very poor framerate

Recommended Posts

PLEASE CAN U HELP?

i have the following setup...

 

AMD 3200+ XP cpu

1 gig ddr ram

Asrock k7-600 motherboard

XFX Geforce 6600gt AGP 128 mb gfx card

agp x8 slot

400watt power supply

 

Since installing the above - 2 games Need for speed underground 2 and Toca Race Driver 2 have been reduced from a fairly good frame rate to a VERY slow 1-2 fps even in the menu stages.

I have installed new drivers for motherboard, gfx card and patched both games but NOTHING has helped. CPU and gfx card temps are fine too. Can anyone, PLEASE offer a solution. I don`t want to pull out my remaining hair. Thank You !

If it helps anyone else with this kind of problem - it was the joystick rumble/vibration driver from thrustmaster that caused the frame rate drop.

Both Toca Race Driver 2 and Need For Speed Underground 2 became silky smooth once the driver for the rumble feature on my Thrustmaster Firestorm Dual Power 3 gamepad were deleted.

Strange solution i know but... it worked. smile
