Im up so something here ! - FPS/Memleaks

[Vanten]

I made some configuration on my windows settings lately, which seems to improve my performance a lot.

My specs are:
Intel P4 1.4 GHz
RAMBUS ram 512
Geforce 4 440MX
:: Edit :: DirectX 9.0c - BUT uses dx7 ingame
Winxp user

The improvements so far I have seen are that:
Higher fps, at least by 5 in "bad" situations, and up to 20 increase in others.
Stable memory, even though it uses much at some point, the garbage collecting seams more smother.
No more lag due to CS and such things!! But a small "lag" when loading player models.

What I did:
(dunno if these are the correct names; don't use an English version of XP)

goto system/advanced/performance/advanced
Change "priority of CPU" from programs to background processes
Then press the virtual memory button in the lower right corner.
Change the amount of virtual memory to "decided of windows".

Dunno if this works for your computer, but it did a lot for me.
And don't blame me if something strange happens :D :angel:

if you want to get all geeky too then you can stop a lot of windows 'services' that are automatic but dont get used (normally).

i turned themes and such off (just change the services from auto etc.) and also did the vitual memory.

i get a nice smoothish game, geforce 2mx makes for bad gameage, but the 3ghz p4 (800fsb) with windows running as few processes as possible makes it alot more playable.

but then again i dont care much for all the chat download jobbies or the 'i can make my windows gui look pretty'. there are ways and means. most people dont need them tho :(
