Default Problem

Hi, I downloaded COD4 demo which is 1.4gb and can play that ok, then I try and play another game which I have had problems with lagging out before and pretty much instant lag out, I have a 160gb hard drive with 139gb free so I was just wondering what has caused this dramatic change in events on my computer lol

thank u in advance

Dan

lag isn't about hard drive space, its about whats running on your computer. Close any extra programs before attempting to play the game. Either that or upgrade your direct X or your video card drivers

Posting specs would be a half-decent bit of help.

Also what is the name of this "other game" you're playing?

Don't say crysis...

Recommendations for soldier front
Recommended: Pentium III 1.2 GHz CPU, DirectX 9.0, dial-up Internet access, 512MB memory RAM, and 3D accelerator support.[1]

seeing as you have all requirements for it I think you should be fine... I really don't see any issue except maybe some video options in the game set too hardware intensive or that something else is taking up that extra memory and CPU power necessary for smooth gameplay

now that i think of it... this game is internet based isn't it...
You know also it might be your internet connection if you are lagging out of the game... check your ping.
Also make sure your not downloading something...
