whiteraven247 Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Hi everyone. I just wanted to post this topic to help other people who may be having trouble with lag and performance, it's nothing technical so read on with ease. I have owned fallout 3 since the day of it's release and have mostly used it on my laptop, which was severly being put through it's paces untill justs recently. i could have kicked myself for not doing this sooner as now i have absolutly no lag whatsoever. Some may laugh at this as being such a simple thing to do but if it does the job then who needs technical methods maybe involving overclocking or such. The first thing i did was get a drivercleaning utility called Advanced system care 3, which does a fair bit of cleaning on your computer including registry fixes etc and just generally fixing alot of issues which are beyond me. The thing that REALLY!!!!!!!! made the difference though was to update my ATI display driver which has completly eradicated lag for me, you need to find out what version yours is, and download and install the most recent version of that kind, Advanced system care had an option to update the driver in the utility section which is how i done mine, (although it must have been a one time update) although im sure with a bit of browsing our magnificent World wide web, it shouldnt take you too long to find it yourself. (just make sure you download the right version) p.s it also has a little tool included called Game booster which kills almost every process working in the background to greatly improve performance responsivness, all in all it's pretty safe to use i think, has a toggle for gaming mode (kill processes) and normal mode (restart processes) Hope this helps......sorry this WILL help Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
