screenlags on windows 7 64 bit

twistah1 · 18 Apr 2012, 22:05

hello.

since i play w:a on win 7 64 bit i got those screenlags. the whole game seams not as smooth as on xp, though. i messed around with the options and some tweaks, didn't help much. the "alternative" slow frontend tweaks works the best for me, but still not as assumed. i'm not sure what's causing the lags. it must have something to do with win 7 at all or something with my gfx card. i got an ati radeon 5750. i'm on the latest update of worms and playing it with an image i made from my cd. this comp is actually twice as good as my old one, i cant think of anything causing lags in worms. it's not like its getting worse when i open windows media player or something. i just got this constant not smooth looking gameplay in addition with couple of lags during my turn. i have no idea.

thanks in advance.

Make sure you've updated your GFX drivers.

There was a big problem with ATI 5xxx drivers causing terrible 2D performance... but that was ages ago now.

all drivers are the latest. i just installed win 7 from scratch 1-2 weeks ago. is there maybe something special to change in the settings of my gfx card?
