Dying out ?

[majistic]

The only game as of right now that I play is Counter Strike 1.6. It used to run real smooth at about 65fps. Then it slowly started to lag, next thing I knew I was gettin 45fps, then 40fps. So I decided to OC my video card, and it didnt really make much of a difference. So I but settings back to default. Now I get 30fps, and about every 30 seconds I have lag that stays for 5 seconds, and it brings me to about 8-12fps. Any replys would be greatly apprecciated. Specs in Sig.

Have you pulled maintence on your rig?

Start with the basics. Scan for adware/spyware with Microsoft AntiSpyware. Do a complete virus scan, double check it with an online scan. Uninstall any old or unused apps on your computer.

Download TweakNow (http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4134.html) and have it check and clean your registry.

Defragment your hard drive.

Use MSCONFIG and axe any unneeded or unwanted autostarts.

Make sure nothing else is running that might eat up your system resources.

Try these out and post back if any of it helps.

None of those worked. I've done all of those. Actually when I play a game I still have around 300mb of RAM unused.

Something is sapping either your CPU or GPU.

Without having your system in front of me, it's really hard to find out what that is.

Have you tried posting a HijackThis reading in the HijackThis forum?

I had over 300 errors. I deleted them.
