Clutter n' video cards
« on: July 17, 2002, 05:24:12 PM »
When I turn on clutter in the arena it makes my gameplay kinda jerky/stutters,just wondering on the cause of this,maybe it could be my video card? I got a GeForce 4 mx 440 on a P4 2.2Ghz with 512mb,would I be as well replacing it with my old GeForce 2 GTS 32mb ?? kinda annoying not being able to use clutter at all :(

i doubt u would get any boost from a gf2...

You could look into different drivers for the gf4

I run a gf4 mx 440, and am very happy with it, tho i can't stand the clutter in AH, and never have been able to

Keep yer sheep outta the box there Joc!  :D

Seriously, it sounds like you have some interrupt sharing going on.  Evene with the card, you should be seeing stutters.   Check to see if any of your devices are sharing an interrupt with the video card.

Then get the sheep outta the box!  Hehe

the card may not be the problem... interrupts relates to a system configuration issue.  The 933 may have been setup better +)

go to device manager, click computer, and u should be able to select to view your IRQ's
