Hydrome

the only way i can play the game around 15 fps is if every setting is the lowest it can be. very low/disabled seems to be the cure. which is kinda annoying because it looks terrible then. if i do put the settings up from like very low to normal on one or two things then my fps goes to around 4-10.. i have looked at ways to boost the performance. i even tried game booster.. and i Forced off VSYNC, made arma start high priority for the CPU i have edited the CFG file but it has not made no difference at all. never had problems with any other games i have played garys mod, battlefield bad company 2, APB, there all recent games i have played on which worked fine. it says i failed for my video card in the can you run it test for ARMA II OA but if you look at the details of it.. it shows i have the requirements just like in the ARMA II and that one passed. anyone got any ideas on what to do ?

I saw ARMA II on youtube and it looked good so i went on the ARMA II website to see that there is a free version out so i thought i would give that a try before buying the game but I cant even try it out it is actually unplayable the menu of the game is laggy I managed to move the arrow which was very laggy to start Single player. Once in the single player the map loads up which is fine no lag at all once I click continue and get to move my character the lag is insane moving is basically impossible. so i press esc and on that menu it lags bad i try and change the video settings. and after messing around with that i have found if i put everything on the lowest setting and disable the ones you can. It is then playable. But i dont want to play with it looking that bad. I have reinstalled graphics card drivers no luck i installed beta drivers no luck i have tested my CPU, Graphics card, RAM, Video RAM, and it says its all fine. i then tried Can you run it site and it was rather interesting ARMA II Test ARMA II OA I emailed the support about 3 days ago but have had no reply from them so i thought i would do this instead. thank you for taking the time to read this :) hope someone can help :bounce3:
