Lag in Project Reality 0.973

[Stone]

Ok i got this situation right now, I used to play Project reality just fine, but I had to replace my HDD because of a fault, by the time I had the laptop out of order PR released the O.973 patch. Anyway, I re-installed everything as it should be. But when I went to play PR all i have is non-Stop lag, Graphics are all set to low. and the Pure Battlefield 2 Works perfectly fine.

Have you tried updating the driver(s) on your graphics card? It worked for me.

Yea I went to Device manager and Pressed on Update driver, It said I got the latest driver. Wouldnt it pure BF2 lag if its from my driver?

As far as I know, Project Reality requires more of your computer than vBF2 does.

It does.. but i used to play it quite well. so it aint cos i dont have a strong computer, I have Bad Company 2 and Medal of honor tier 1 which work smooth aswell.

What saXoni said... Update your drivers. Windows 7 has tons of issues with .973

I bet you any money it's your Internet. IF you live in USA connect to US servers...

I'll update all drivers again, The device manager, Update tool works right?

I would recommend going to ATI and downloading the correct drivers, then report back with the results, windows update is not recommended for driver updates.

Updated the ATI driver, it still lags, I forgot to say that It takes much longer then normal for it to load. could be a corrupted folder during download?

And I now installed Battlefield 3 Beta, and it works fine aswell, i doubt its my hardware now.

It's all ok now. I think the driver update did work. it still lags sometime now, probably was the background programs. I get 93% of physical memory while im playin though.
