Hey all:
I had a major meltdown , XP slowly degraded to such a point I had to save all info i could on cd then formatted my hard drive and reinstalled XP and minimal programs, including a freshly downloaded version of AH2. Well I gotta tell ya, a world of difference.
I have a weak machine, Celery 1 gig., 512 ram, Fx 5200 128 PCI card, running on XP OEM, and I get easily 30% better frame rates now.
Even better is stable frame rates, no rubber bullets and less vox troubles.
I'm no computer wizz, but if you're running a lesser machine like mine, and you haven't formatted your drive reinstalling XP recently, I would strongly recommend it! It worked wonders for me.
I hope this helps some other lowenders , like myself, good luck.
