Re: Screenshot Problem.

hmmm... with your specs, it shouldn't do that. Try defragging your hard disk.

I would start by defragging you HDD, and scanning for adware, spyware & viruses and also check how many processes you are running in windows as you may well be using say half your ram on unnecessary apps.

See this tweakguide.

Re: Screenshot Problem.

I have to admit mine does it for approx a mere second but all my fps games do it when doing a screenshot except HL2.

Like i mentioned above, do a system tweak and you may see a difference.

Re: Screenshot Problem.

Mines fine. I have heard people don't stutter when screen shotting with FRAPS. Might be worth a dig?

Re: Screenshot Problem.

ya ya, i never get a stutter with fraps either, but the pic format sucks, i want jpg but im not gonna buy fraps... waste of money.

Well if fraps dont work for ya, & your print screen keep pumpin out that lagg, ya ever tried xfire? it has screenshot for bf2, u just set up your keys in the options & boom, it takes killer shots, & you can upload them to your xfire homepage, but on the website there low resolution, the ones you want is in you xfire folder in your c: drive.

hope this helps.
