the rules -
1. problem must be solved and game running stable
2. there will most likely be a lot of back-and-forth
3. please don't give up on me
THE PROBLEM
after 1.5 years of trying to solve this problem, i got a 15 minute glimpse of a smooth game. that's the issue. my rig is custom built and i have updated every driver i can imagine. running forceware 84.56 after trying dozens of drivers. the problem can be described as large pixels. my fps during gameplay is NOT A PROBLEM. imagine you are a sniper and scoped in. when you pan left and right, the scope moves as if the pixels were a few real millimeters in size, so you can never center it on a head. now that is same for the rest of gameplay. i can strafe left and right (not moving my mouse) and everything is perfectly smooth, but when i turn my mouse left and right, it is not smooth, far from it. as i thought my mouse was the issue, i went and plunked down $50 for a logitech mx518. cool mouse, did not solve my problem. i have used logitechs "setpoint" program and played without it. no difference. the reason i write this is that i recently said f*** this, reformatted for the 6th time, and installed xp sp2. PRESTO, game ran perfectly smooth. next morning, back to sh**. please please please, i paid lots of $ for this comp and the specs are way above requirements. remember, don't tell me i need a new ___, ___, ___ cuz i got that glimpse of the smooth gameplay remember. ask your questions. the $20 reward is only for the person who gets me through this, honestly.
