Im running a laptop with 2.1ghz sempron, 4gb ram, radeon hd4200 mobile.
Always played bf2 no issues at all. With video card settings on "performance", the mipmap set to quality, vsync disabled and all the settings in game let to low except for terrain set to medium. Not too sure what my fps was, never bothered to check but it was always smooth unless a big fire fight went on then it would drop to id say 30-40 range and get a bit sluggish.
Out of no where things got really slow. Checked my fps and its 40-50 running around and as soon as someone pops up on the screen it dives to 20-30. Almost impossible to play. Ive checked all in game settings, video settings, etc and nothing was changed. Updated drivers to the most recent and have everything set to max performance. Still no luck. I have even tried dropping the in game terrain settings to low and nothing changes.
Any suggestions as to what could be going on?
Heres the video settings more in depth.
hd antialiasing: application --- disabled
ansiotropic filter: application --- disabled
catalyst a.i.: advanced, if I disable it I get weird fuzzy black patches all over the game
mipmap: high performance
adaptive anti-aliasing: disabled
opengl settings: "triple buffering" unchecked
Refresh rate in game being off cause it by chance? Just to try things for ****s and giggles I set the in game settings to default then set them all back to where I wanted them. Ive never changed the in game screen resolution and rate before. I noticed after hitting default it moved it back to 800x600 60hz. was 8x6 72hz. Hopped in a game and played for few minutes and things seem to bit better. hard to tell as of yet.
