FPS problem?
I installed windows xp pro with service pack 2 a week ago, and since then, when I play quake, I have an FPS problem, In full screen, my fps can't go higher than 60, when I have com_maxfps "200", but when I go into minimized mode (Alt + Delete), i get 220 fps. I have tried reinstalling quake and e+, and playing with the default config, but nothing helps.
This is most likely a driver setting problem.
If you have a nvidia card, you can configure the screen hz in the driver control panel.
Things are a little more tricky with a ATI card.
I strongly recommend you download a program like ATI Tray Tools - you can use it's Refresh Lock feature to set it up to work as it should ![]()
Here is it's official english website : guru3d.com
I checked, and I have all the newest drivers i need for my card (nvida), My card is old, so I have the same drivers I had before.
You need to configure the hz in the driver control panel through the display properties, that should fix the problem if you disable vertical sync also that is ![]()
could it be vsync for full screen?
it would drop ur fps to actual monitor hz (i think 60 by u
)
so turn it off ![]()

Yes, but remember to set your hz (unless you like to get headaches
)
use another drivers. Iam using detonators 52.16 for my GeFroce4 Ti4200. I have the most FPS with this version of drivers. I had problem with forceware and in my small test i find out that 52.16 producing more FPS than omega drivers

Really? Interesting,I also have a 4200 and I've found omegas drivers to be the best when it comes to FPS.Have u tryed Omega 44.03?
on my system omega didnt work properly. so im sticking to forceware.
