Slowage

The place to ask for technical help with running the demo or the full game...

Slowage

I'm sorry if this problem has been solved before, but I couldn't find an answer to it from here. The thing is that the game is _really_ slow, no matter how much I tweak the performance-settings. It runned the same way with minimum details and maximum details. The menu is also as slow.

Specs:
AMD Athlon XP 1700+
Geforce 4 MX 440
512MB RAM
And enough HD space.

And I have DirectX 9.0, so could it be a driver-problem or not?
Hopefully someone can help.

Thanks.

The game should run fine on those... Though Geforce MX's are crap, they should still run Freelancer fine...

Do you have any programs running the the background?

Zibo, check your drivers for the MX 440. I run a GeForce4 Ti 4200, but I don't slow down, I crash! I loaded the unoffical 44.10 drivers in last night and no problems so far. Shut down all the apps you have running in the background, and change your PCI Texture Memory Allocation Size to 0 if your running it out of an AGP slot. That should boost your peformance a bit. GL!
