Hmm...processor perhaps?
I play Renegade on my laptop (2.4GHz processor, 40GB HDD, 256MB RAM, & an ATI Radeon 340M graphics card) & I get roughly 40-50FPS, though I've only averaged it in the last few days.
I'd say MSN Messenger could be a part of your problems, cuz it's a memory hog alot of the time. It says it's using a little, but it's using alot more, I know from experience.
Other than that, no real clue, if I were able to get on it or something I'd be more help. But I can't, so ya Hope I helped some

FFS, I submitted a long post to this thread yesterday, and it hasn't came through. It came up with page cannot be displayed, and I couldn't get back to the reply box.
Anyway, here it is summarised. First, open up microsoft config (msconfig) from the run box, go to the startup tab, turn off everything except scanregistry, taskmonitor, systemtray and loadpowerprofile. Now, right click your desktop, go to properties, settings tab, advanced box. Find the #d settings for your card and turn the detail stuff down if you can. There might be a folder in start > programs called Nvidia, geforce or whatever that lets you do the same thing. Now, right click My Computer, properties, find the device manager, disk drives, right click the one you use, properties, settings tab and enable DMA (direct memory access). Finally, create a folder on your desktop called "textures" and shift all texture modifications in your renegade\data folder into it. AT LAST, restart. Try the game now. Still slow? Try a driver update from http://www.nvidia.com. Your main problem is probably your processor speed. You have good RAM, decent video card.. you can get a 1.8 Ghz processor (athlon 2200XP) cheapish these days, have alook around stores. Hope that helps. By the way, I have no idea what NAV is.

i used to get that, all you have to do is run a disk check and it makes it work. u are using xp from the screenshots, so in case u dont know how to do a diskcheck, go to my computer, right click on the c drive and click properties. then click tools and then click on the check now button. tick the two check boxes and restart your pc, it will then run during the boot up.
i hope ive helped
life is too important to be taken seriously.

Probably a bit late (and the guy who mentioned checking the Advanced tab has already said it), but make sure you have FSAA (anti-aliasing) turned OFF.
it can really kick the framerate in the bollocks on an old GF4 MX.

It's just your speed. 900mhz and a Geforce 4 MX won't really get you anywhere if you want Renegade to run fast.
You just need to buy a whole new computer. I'm running on an Athlon XP 2600+ 2.1GHZ, 512MB DDR PC2700, an 80GB Western Digital Hard Drive, and a Geforce FX 5600XT 256mb video card. With this computer I get 90+ fps in 8 player servers, 70+ fps in 16 player servers, 50+ fps in 32 players, and 25 - 40 fps in 56 player servers.
