Update all your drivers and do a malware check.

Check it with Ad-Aware and Spybot Search & Destroy.

No computer is ever clean from malware, just so you know. Unless it's a new computer you just bought.

And even then, if you bought it from HP or something it will have all sorts of crap running in the background that they install for you, supposedly helpful programs that simply sit around and hog RAM and CPU time. Not technically malware, but almost as bad.

Yet another reason why I always build my own machines, there's no crap preinstalled on them.




Anyway, on topic, UPDATE YOUR VIDEO DRIVERS. About 8 posts have told you to do this so far and you seem to have ignored every single one of them, so perhaps the capital letters will help you to read it.

Whether you have a CRT or a TFT/LCD doesn't matter. You still have a picture (like your desktop) you don't have a special cable that you use for games. You asked for help we've told you that you MUST update your video drivers.

Why ask for help and then totally ignore it? Just time wasting.

it's not like we're saying your pc is bad.


That's also not to say your PC is good.
Because it's not. My PC sucks, and it's better than yours.

Lower your refresh rate to 60 mhz. That solves 99% of these problems. If that doesn't work, update your video drivers. That also solves 99% of these problems.

Check your resolution and what MHz it can handle on your graphics card box / online.

75 is better.


Presence is a curious thing, if you think you need to prove it... you probably never had it in the first place.

Topic starter said it ws solved and obviously doesn't want to listen to the help he asked for anyway. So let's just forget about this topic.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord
