The Intel Pentium D is too slow. It might be good at video conversions but for everything else it's just too slow. The Core 2 Duo starts at $300 AUD (E6300) and the E6600 can make beat the AMD Althlon 64 X2 5200+ in most games and the AMD's have much lower frame rates in lower resolutions.
1 Do you have the latest drivers?
2 Did you replace the textures?
3 Have you tested the graphics card on other games? Did it work better with the other games? (Use Fraps for fps)
4 What are your systems specifications?
5 Did this happen when you started playing LFS or did it happen just now?
GTR4 LFS
*very good graphics textures *excellent physics
*well programed A.I. *free roam camera
*great engine sounds *very easy to modify world
-need modern graphics cards *can be used on low end systems
-can't change music *ok multiplayer system
Just some reasons
I think LFS is great because you don't need very high tech equipment to make skins. You might need a program to convert music to 16bit OGGs but there are freeware software that can do that. Audacity is a freeware editor (you'll need LAME for mp3 encoding) that can convert into WAV, WMA, MP3 or OGG files. DDS files can be used with Adobe Photoshop Elements which can be sold for under $200 AUD or you could use the free DDS Converter and then open it up in paint, GIMP or any other tool. A very customisable game.
Yup the are the 7.4 drivers and the Nvidia 7300GS didn't ever stuff up
What happens (in LFS) things tend to move like the driver's race uniform. It's like a really big heart beat (i'll try to upload video of that). In NFS the ground where the car is parked the floor moves but no effect on the car.
Then before I reinstalled Windows XP PRO everything was working properly and then with the same driver it stuffed up
Picture of it stuffing up when I turn on the computer
doesn't tell me anything about the crash or why the graphics card isn't working properly
And I used a Nvidia 7300GS and that game never stuffed up (I reinstalled the game daily so It can't be the game's fault)
It happens to LFS too. I was watching people play in multiplayer when i saw only cars hovering in the air (or the track dissapeared momentarily.) I'll be pretty lucky if I get to go through a day without crashing.
The message (attached below) can pop up anytime - when I'm playng a game, surfing the web, watching videos or anything that might require extensive use of the GPU.
It might be overheating but it seems the graphics card stays at 40C and two fans are are few centimeters away.
Um It must be the graphics card because IT WAS WORKING PROPERLY A FEW DAYS AGO :gnasher:
And whats the point? LFS just says there's something wrong with the driver.
And for a car with no gears : Up until Saturday 14th April my driver seems to break down very often. I've installed it every four hours when the games are like a car with no gears. I've updated the driver but it seems to get worse. Now my graphics card stuffs up every 10min . How is this possible? I've reinstalled Windows XP Professional Service Pack 2 but my ATi 9550SE just won't slice through. It definately can't be overheating or could it
It's never happened before and it happens anytime anywhere

Finally a video which i don't get bored at that's based on live coverage races
but an LX6 club is even more special
(you don't see many of them)
just perfect 9/10 no 10/10 no al well 50/10
Guess What? The DirectX 10 cards from Nvidia (8800 series) are acually slower than the top of the range DirectX 9 card (7950 GX2) and the're blody expensive because DirectX 10 games haven't came out yet
The 8800 GTS can be ~$700 AUD and the GTX can be ~$1000 AUD
where as the 7950 GX2 can be ~$770 AUD
Please wait for the prices to drop
or wait for another
VERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRY bad quality
what is your graphics card? the framerate is bad
PLEASE practise what you're doing before you make a video
And take that song from cars away (from Sherel Crow)
Tip:bring down the speed to 0.250x and speed it up in virtual dub (www.virtualdub.com)
Tip: shift+u is custom camera mode and remember to press the space bar when you do that
