Im very unhappy about this decision made. Silverstone maybe isnt the best for facilities as theyre all mobile ones brought in for the race, but the 2 years ive been there, rain or sunshine, its just been excellent. Camping in the village of silverstone made it even more great.

Ill be sad to see it go . Donnington is closer to home, but i just liked the trip down there.



BRING IT BACK TO SILVERSTONE!

I was there. Was such a good race.been twice now. Went for the Practice, Quali and race day for 2 years running. Sad to see its moving to donnington in 2010. Pitty they moved the BMW Pit Stop Lane (Where you can interact with different things. Drive with lfs, change tyres on cars etC.) As i got there someone told me it had gone to the Trafford Centre for the weekend. Which is right near me.


O well, Bring on donnington, hope to go to the last race at silverstone next year


(PS. I shook hamiltons hand, and saw Barichello and Button face to face. Was well chuft )

Drive from inside the car. Once you get used to it its much better and realistic. You dont see race drivers standing up in the car because they dont like the colour of the wheel

Bah. Video makes it look like i totaled it on purpose. But my wheel kept calibrating. So if i had my wheel slightly turned to the left, it would randomly go to the middle on the screen. So i just went in a straight line and paniced to hold the car. Decided to drop out and save collisions lol

Just Upgrade your pc. IF its a descent processor and motherboard all you need is more RAM and a descent graphics card. Maybe a 7series NVIDIA?


No need to go to the right. Stick to the racing line. Its quicker. Once you have learnt that track you should know where the curbs are off the back of your hand

I have no other explanation of it. Replacing folders doesnt always work. Sorry mate.

Thats because its a shadow. Look at the grass on the right, there is sunshine. There is a big wall on the left blocking out the sun.


Thats how i have it and LFS is. nothing wrong with that & also the fact that your getting 23fps at a standstill is quite worrying

You said you managed to replace the windows folder. Now to me, thats somehow copying a windows folder and putting it back on your pc somehow?


Ide backup the data you need.

Format the whole of your pc WITH the windows XP/Vista/2000 disk so that it installs windows fully and installs all the drivers necessary.

To me it sounds like there was an error "replacing" the drivers.

If you didnt format it, do it. Backup the files you need the most, NOT your windows folder.

Basically. Go to My computer -> Then to C: (C DRIVE) -> Then to Windows -> Then to SYSTEM 32. And then look for a folder called "Drivers". If its there then i dont know the problem


I would suggest backing up the files you want the most (NOT THE WHOLE OF YOUR PC) And formatting it. Then re-installing windows. that might sort your problem as you might have missed a file when copying the windows folders across.

45 fps LOL! Why would people go out and spend another £150 on a graphics card if all they needed is 45 fps!

1) Make Sure you have the right drivers
2) Make sure your drivers are the WINGMAN Logitech G25 Drivers
3) Try and re-install them, and then try and go to settings in vista for your calibration settings for Vista.


Hppe i helped

I have recognised the name of it on CNTRL + ALT + DEL. I do hope it was the source of my problem

I also have patch Y30 (the test one) to see if it helps. The name of the thing was NMIndexStoresrv.exe Its taking about 20,000 when i just have msn running and dont see why it would suddenly rise when lfs is running. Dont know what its off. Just got to remember to end it everytime i boot up i suppose.

thanks a lot people If it wasnt my problem ill get the thread back to life

Hi

Thanks a lot bryan. Hopefully i think i might have found the source of my problem. At the exact same time as the fps dropped to 2, the cpu % bar on my keyboard went to 100% (Showing that the CPU was being used up 100%)

I then had an idea to quickly minimize it and see under processes what was taking it up. Surprisingly it wasnt lfs... it was something i hadnt even heard of. But was under "username - James" and not under System. I eneded it and the problems went away. So i shall see if it happens again



thanks a lot

Hi
When im racing i usually get a good 80fps, whereever i am on track. If im racing a lot of people it might go to 30 on the start grid. Which is easily raceable for the start. But when im going around, randomly it will go from whatever fps it is on, to about 3, then 4, then 3, and after a massive pile up and crash it will rise back upto 80.

I installed a new HD and still the problem consisted. I play other computer games and i have no framerate issues what so ever on it or any other game..


I close everything down and it still does it. What can the problem be?

Erm. I have usb 2.0 i THINK. its about 3 year old so i dont know.
ASUS K8V AMD Athlon 64+ NVIDIA 7600GS 1GB RAM

although i have noticed a fps decrese in another game aswell now. So im going off the theory of the DFP. I have checked my ram with memtest and its fine...
