Severencir Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 i installed on my gf's computer a while ago, and played a few games with her went perfectly fine. then a few days later it started giving very skippy lag on the main menu and in game intel core 2 quad Q8200 @2.33ghz (4 cpus) 8192MB DDR2 ram Nvidia GeForce 9500 GS tried forcing gpu tried lowering all graphics settings had minimal success changing res to 680x480 (i think, whatever the lowest resulotion available in the games settings is) at lowest graphics, but i can't have her play like that, and it still was a bit laggy all drivers updated directx 11 up to date Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afevis Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I'm assuming that you deleted the Xinput1_3.dll you downloaded from a third party site before you installed directx, correct? Honestly I'd recommend that you update your GPU regardless. It's around 6 years old now and had trouble running vanilla UT3 on high at a medium resolution. Playing modern games on it will be a challenge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Severencir Posted March 10, 2014 Author Share Posted March 10, 2014 long before, and i plan to update that gpu eventually, but funds are tight and i can't afford to spend more than $50 right now, which wouldn't be enough my main rig is a GTX 650 anyway, is there anything i can do to get it working to hold me over to that point?

Afevis Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 What's your OS? Windows 7? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Severencir Posted March 10, 2014 Author Share Posted March 10, 2014 yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afevis Posted March 11, 2014 Share Posted March 11, 2014 ..\Renegade X\Binaries\Win32\UDK.exe Right click, properties, and under compatibility check off disable desktop composition. This should help performance a little. If you're running steam as well, I'd recommend doing the same for GameOverlayUI.exe in the steam folder.

Severencir Posted March 13, 2014 Author Share Posted March 13, 2014 yeah... no... i even went so far as to install a second fresh partition of windows 7 to check if it was a system issue, and had no luck... i guess between then and now the computer just decided to stop trying... have a new gpu and psu coming in the mail, thanks for your help though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
