Generals running like t*rd on good pc

[Guest RedWine]

Hi

My generals is running very slow, I never used to have this problem, but it seems to be getting worse with zero hour.

Pc specs are:

 

Abit at7 max2

athlon 2600

radeon 9700

512ram

using onbaord sound (this is the only thing i could put it down to)

 

Ive tried turning fast write of and agp speeds down and so forth but I just cant work it out, maybe its a cmos setting?

 

any help appreciated or and links to other technical support for generals?

Thank u

try latest directX new video drivers, reinstalling the whole generals and update zero hours on a fresh generals

I found that turning of the animated cloud shadows that scroll across the battlefield improved the performance of Generals.

 

Also, take a look at this site for some performance improvement tips http://free.hostdepartment.com/s/skyhigh911/generals.html

if all else fails I suggest diabling or turing off as much as u can of systems running in the system tray

 

so disable the firewall and antivirus and stuff

 

sometimes when i do that it works better

someone back me up here???

Norton is a bitch if you want to play games once in a while. I'd go for Mcafee or PC Cillin 2003.
