FRAPS peformance with my PC.
Hi,
mostly I am helping other people here but this FRAP issue I have is really annoying and I dont know where the problem really sit.

I can record at 1024*760 at 30FPS not problem or I set screen to 1280*960 and then record at half size and I can even manage 50FPS smooth without lost frames.I can even have many cars on screen and no problem and run this all at 4xAA+16AF.But guess what...I can only manage this when I set LFS to render at 16bit.

When I am trying recording things in LFS at 32bit then I can hardly manage to get 15 frames with same settings above.When there is a lot of cars even not 15FPS(even at LFS running 0.5 speed).Others people reported it run smooth for them even 32bit so I dont know where the problem really is.For me it seems LFS has some problem probably rendering sometimes at 32bit?

I have tried different combination of graphic drivers,fraps no change.I have latest chipset drivers as well.

My system spec:
AMD A643200+
2x512MB ram 2.5-3-3-5
GF7900GT 256MB 450/1320
120GB HD 8MB cache 7200rpm

You might said why I complain when I can record at 16bit but then there is wierd color traill on track.In the place when at 32bit you see dark race line.This looks really odd and I would like to finally make some videos.

Many thanks for all your help in advance guys to trace this issue.
can u try to explain normally?
Are you having poor FPS While recording? if so, get used to it, thats what happens with FRAPS, if not, try to explain more clearly

The problem is that I cant record smoothly with FRAPS when LFS is set to 32bit.As I have described above I have tried different graphic drivers and fraps version but still same result.
I get smooth recording with FRAPS in 16bit and horrible in 32bit.Its really strange as others guys can get really smooth recording even at 32bit....so I am asking where is the issue.My PC doesnt seem so outdated.
no your PC is fine buddy, recording at 16bit shouldnt affect quality alot, and if you have problems there, then I would get the latest fraps
if you still cant fix it, email FRAPS because I am stumped :S

Well I wouldnt mind personally recording at 16bit but then I get some weird colour line on track(its a place when in 32bit mode you have darker racing line).I want as much quality movies as possible.

Its just in 32bit FRAP performace decrease like 2-4x times :-(.I have also tried latest fraps and still same issue.I get big hit when LFS is in 32bit mode.
bump.....anybody interested to help me
