Hi, this is a serious problem and I have tried everything that I know to fix it. I would greatly appreciate your help.
Here's my problem in UT2004
If you take a look at the FRAPS counter at the top left-hand corner of the image you'll see that my framerate falls to unusually low levels intermittently throughout the game. It usually happens without warning can remain this way for 4-5 seconds. It's almost like my HDD is being paged, but the HDD light isn't active at all during gameplay (due to the gig of ram that I'm using).
I ran Prime95 for 6 hours w/o any errors or warnings, so I don't think that it's a memory problem.
The strange thing is that my video card runs other games such as Halo without any hitches and it scores 3600 3Dmarks in 3DMark03. I really don't know why these problems are happening in Unreal Tournament.
This is really bugging, and I just want some clarification about whether or not it's the vid card (since I'm upgrading that soon anyways) or if it is some other problem.
thanks.
