XPS Slow Play


Guest Kaewin

Recommended Posts

I have a new XPS gen 2 m170 with a radeon 6800 go ultra and i have been trying driver after driver. The game i am trying to run is Everquest, its a pretty old game and should have no problems, the graphics look great and its not choppy like lag, but everything is moving at about half speed, makeing th game impossible to play. Maybee i have just been using the wrong drivers or there is another problem, but im at a loss any suggestions would be much appreciated.

What is with this Radeon Go 6800 ultra?

You must be really confused.

Anyway my brother just got the IXPS Gen2 M170 with the GF 7800 GTX go.

Your problem could have to do with the CPU's speedstep, are you sure your processor is not changing speed?

You should try locking it at its fastest speed and see if that helps.

Also, what drivers are you using for your gf card?

And is there a demo for this game. (and do you have problems running the demo)

If you have problems running the demo too, please provide me with a link, I might be able to convince my brother to try it out.

http://escapetonorrath.station.sony.com/ Is a link to the demo for the game, had the same problem there. My Nerd report and when i bought the comp does say 6800 Go Ultra, here ill post it. I think my computer is running at top speed but am not sure how to set or check it, dont know why it wouldnt be though. I am using the 82.10 right now, have tried the 85.1, 77.01, the dell drivers and no luck so far.
