vista problem

[hemagoku]

i have installed vista x32 yesterday and today i tried to play Counter strike : source ,but it was so slow and my fps was 11 !!! ,can someone help me with this ?

[Redd]

vista is retarded compared to xp when it comes to installing stuff
try rebooting your pc and then run the game
if not....check to make sure your graphics card drivers are up to date

[hemagoku]

did all that and its the same

[Azilius]

RAM and/or Vid Card. Most common problems..especially RAM considering you just installed...VISTA.

[Grimm-.-]

RAM RAM RAM...If you have less then 2Gb Then it aint recommended...

You may also have a out of date vid card if you get 11 fps lol...

Oh yeah make sure you arent running a virus scan.

Your welcome for my nub tips.

Why vista? It doesnt really do much more than xp, just bout the same but more consuming.

[hemagoku]

close some proccessses, i played css on a crappy vista and it works around 1g ram? and some crappy video card. try windowed mode and use lower settings

your first problem is that your using vista.

find a file called "system32", delete it and the problems should stop.

[Pan_Raider(`_´)]

vista has loads of redundant programms in the backround and the copyright issues don't allow many games to function.
Crysis only worked on XP for me too while it had only 4 frames per second on vista

[mosiac]

there's a bunch of addons that vista runs regularly that eat up your cpu and slow down your comp, turn those off and it should be fine if you have 2gigs of ram

and don't ask how to turn those off, there are multiple guides on the internet on how to.

Right click CSS icon -> Properties -> Compatibility -> Run in compatibility mode for -> Windows XP SP2

not sure if it will work but try wine for windows and set it to run as xp <.<

The problem is that you're using VISTA.

Vista is so bad, it makes me want to go MAC.

fraps can actually lag a machine, most games you can do it through the console.

Xfire has also a fps counter.

in the ingame xfire window, go to options, and there is something like show fps counter
