I see some older threads about this but I am gonna ask again since this is a new year and others had garbage hardware...

Im trying to record FRAPS at an HD resolution (720p to 1080p) but Ive noticed that no matter where the resolution is, my FRAPS just won't record.. I get like 4-5 fps

I had music playing in the background and that recorded just fine

Now its no way possible that my hardware cannot handle this... I play and record Crysis, COD4, Assassins creed, and other games in HD, just fine at 60FPS...


hardware:
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9650 @ 4.05Ghz
8GB DDR2 1000mhz RAM
NVIDIA GTX 260 Core 216
OS hard drive: PERC5/i 4 drive RAID 0 array
Recording drive: Two WD 1TB FALFS stripped to RAID 0 or WD 500GB AAKS


And LFS just won't accept a nice recording!

BUG in Fraps...

awesome

Well, I am working my LFS vid with 100 fps but I dropped it 55 for quality.

About Fraps, you should try the newest version of Fraps. I got same problem, but I have old PC so it have not so much power for recording crysis, or Maximum is 25-27 with 1680 - 1050
