Mr. P...

Can't beat the hardware, sounds like a cool rig. It maybe the operating system.

May he can try to make a WinXP partition and run OFP from XP. Thats about all I can think of.

PS. See you in the Funhouse biggrin_o.gif

DAM! Nice rig.

I read that OFP uses a mouse lock or something like that and it makes your game run choppy during any firefight.

So go to your control panel and click on the mouse and turn your mouse scrolling all the way down, BUT NOT YOUR OFP OPTIONS SCROLLING keep it about middle. See if it helps any.

I cant beleive I havent read more about the scroll lock problem.

Other wise I would wait until Vist gets its act together and releases some computer friendly stuff. icon_rolleyes.gif

Or if you really want a gaming machine get TinyXP.

:wispers: IT only uses like 40 mb ram. biggrin_o.gif
