Problems with geforce 4 ti 4200 !

[Arkanius]

Well im having problems with it. I cant get high fps. In games like Half life i only get 40-50 fps while people with a Geforce MX2 gets 100 (stable) Whats my problem??? Dunno i have the latest drivers for the Nvidia TI cards.

100fps with a MX2? Have you been smoking that crack pipe? :o

There's not enough information to help much, but you're right, you should be getting much higher fps on Halflife with that card. Try switching Halflife from DirectX to OGL or vice-versa, or try different drivers (with a Geforce3 I prefer the 28.XX's.. they're the fastest for me... find out which are the best for the 4200). Or maybe something's not set right in the drivers that's slowing it down....

OGL will perform a _lot_ better, also change your GL Settings to use Block Transfers ( in Ctrl Panel -> Display -> Settings -> Advanced -> nVidia -> OpenGL Settings ... or something like that ). There are other settings that you can use to make your nv cards run more optimally without overclocking... I had found a web page dedicated to it... but forgot where, :( sorry

Sorry but a Geforce 2 MX getting 100fps is BS, someone has been telling you porkies ;)

Don't know how much Half Life depends on graphic cards vs cpu but come on it's a six year old game... ;)

This is a mx 2 we are talking about, it would be lucky to get 15 fps on IE :p

Half-Life worked well on my 8MB integrated SiS 530 card. I suggest turning down the levels of AA and AF in the detonator options as that can drive the fps right down with certain settings.
