Dox Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 update your drivers for better performance, the drivers you are sing is outdated. Download 175.16 from the forums here, and also download a modded inf, replace the modded inf into the 175.16 folder and overwrite original to be able to install. MOre info in the quick start guide found in my sig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Laegim Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 and when the updated 175.16 driver still doesn't allow the GeForce 8400M GS to perform well, anyone have a suggestion for that? I too play on an XPS M1330 and was surprised to find I couldn't play age of conan. With the newer driver its a tad better but it still unplayable in my book. This machine has a 2.4 GHz processor which is its only failing on the recommended requirements, which means it has to be a rendering issue with the graphics. I'm really not sure what to try at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popster Posted June 4, 2008 Report Share Posted June 4, 2008 I am having a similar problem using the 8400m GS card. I must admit I have not yet tried the drivers mentioned here (will do shortly), but last night used a new driver from a different site with bizarre results. I found that I could run Oblivion with all seetings maxed, but Age of Conan is still unplayable! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 You need to check up on the Age of Conan forums on performance increase, they have leak issues when using low settings. Using medium setting and lowering settings manually gave me a big fps increase on my 8400m GS card, Im currently playing 10 - 35 fps depending on environment.

Michael Marley Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 Laegim, your CPU does meet the requirements for the game. What they require is a 3gHz Pentium 4. Even a 1.8 gHz Core 2 Duo can knock the socks off a 3gHz P4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
