maybe 1 day at 10000000fps

hey guys......i've tried everything to makes hl2 work correctly with my radeon sapphire x800 pro...but nothing....last driver...tweaks....really nothing....someone has sujested to me to control how my video card works on the bios..but...i donnu how to work with it..............well i just would like to play my favourite game decently...not at 20----15fps :sad:

That sounds...Odd, seeing how I have a Radeon 9600XT and I get about the same FPS.

is it pure ati or did some crap ass company remove the real power to make it 50% cheaper and put there name under it? :razz:

What about your CPU RAM and MOBO?

yes pure at 100%.... 550euro processor x86 Family 15Model 2 Stepping 7 GenuineIntel 2800 Mhz...

well...it's really not possible... i've just tried to play with all the settings in low option filters off and the game goes slow like with the high options..........VALVE DO SOMETHING PLEASE!!!!

Go to "start" menue and click on "run". Type in "DXDiag". Then click on the "Network" tab and click on "test direct play". After the test is done list any errors you get. Your video card might not be the problem.

this is the second time you posted this topic.

and i still say its the bios.

the 800 also has an external power source, if you have never owned a card like it, you may not realize it has to have one.

i suggest you read up on "installation"

What's even odder is that the HL2 console
often displays that i have 1 CPU at...5600 MHZ (I actually have
1800MHz, nothing more) !!

No errors....the chat starts and then in the list it's all ok....

You test all the video stuff in DXdiag? You have to click "test" you know... But yer try that external power source bit, check bios and make the AGP aparture size the same as the ammount of RAM on the card itself. Also post the motherboard you have (don't say "some Asus one", we need numbers and s**t).

1800MHz, nothing more) !!

yes i get that sometimes also - it shows double or tripple what i
actually have once in a while, sometimes its only a little bit more

Reformat, if that doesn't work get it repaired by a professional, if that dont work send your graphics card back to be tested, and RAM, and processor, and motherboard, if that doesn't work, erm tough luck!

That should do it!

Whats your processor? Because your vid card is only as fast as your processor.

Try playing other games like doom 3. If doom 3 works (or anyother game) then its HL2 thats having he problem.

Run dxdiag, see if there is any problems with your drivers.

Post this at steampowered.com and say VALVE PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!
(because no one from valve is here) and maybe someone over there will
help you find the answer.
