My frame rate has become unsat w/patch 11, AND, it changed all if my sounds!!!. I am now skipping frames,, and dropping <10 FPS when fighting.. If just in normal flight and looking aroun, I run 17-28 FPS. Also. I can not use windows key now.. When I do, I get disco and it sends a message to Microsoft about the error.. Never did that before.. Need help please!!!
Wish HT had a way to place game load on video card OR CPU....It appears that I now only use 53mg of my video mem now..
Data on my system follows.. My connection is DSL.. Nothing is running in background.. Any suggestions..
