Title: any suggestions?
Post by: lulu on January 25, 2013, 10:58:08 AM

Hi,

I have to buy a new HD to replace the old one - r.i.p.
I have re-installed my pc but i have missed drivers for the ethernet adapter.
It works with a driver inside the cd installation - I suppose.

During the game i suffer some very fast freezing not frequently but in some
occasions: when I press weapon buttons, first time expecially, to fire some
weapon or released drop tanks; during dogfight in topic moment ...


Any suggests?



P.S.

I thought that the driver for the ethernet adapter is not good. How
I can find it's original one?

Sounds like you might be running into some resource issues.  Just a guess.  I really need to see a DXDIAG output for something like this.

This happened to me. I turned on "Disable Weapons Effects" in the graphics options, and the problem was solved.  Still not totally sure what the "weapons effects" are, but everything still looks the same when I fire, but I dont get the frame rate hit.

Look into Device Manager for the brand of your ethernet adapter. Then go to the website of either the manufacturer of your computer if it's a branded one, or the motherboard's site. You should find the original drivers there. But if you can access the Internet with your current driver without problems, they are quite good too. If it works, don't fix it... :old:

TY all,

I will post DXDIAG as soon as possible - I hope today.
I put 'terrain clutter option' off and perhaps something
works better now (yestarday night I mean)

And yes, Bizman, I agree with k.i.s.s. rule when what is simple is well recognized  :lol

Problem still here.   :headscratch:

Every time a plane appears on the deck or there is an AH one event
like this, i got a fast freeze and a spike in variance delay.

All was fine with 2.27 AH release.
After my HD stopped working and I could not try subsequents versions.

heeEELP pls

 :pray
