Hello every one, I was wondering if any one has had VERY VERY bad Fluxations in Latency in battlefield 1942. I get perfect around 80 latency in All my other games (SOF, Half-life, Everquest, ect). If any one knows methods for battlefield latency fixes pleast post!

If the rig in your sig is the one you use then that may be part of the prob. GF3 may suffice, dunno, but the RAM is definitely not enough to play effectively. Although the Game'z required RAM is 128MB according to the box; it's RECOMMEND that 256+MB would play better. That is 256MB of RAM that's FREE from allocation or not being used of course. Always go with what's RECOMMENDED on the box not REQUIRED (required is the most minimum but not always guaranteed).

If Upgrading the RAM is not an option, which shouldn't be much of a prob nowadays, try using lowest settings first in the game menu and see if it even runs smooth. **BUT before that do TASK Manger and shutdown any programs not being used.

From the lowest settings, if it runs smoother, then "tweak" it from there, Save each Tweak too!! That's the best way to find your optimal setting for the game - BF42 is a HOG on memory due to the way the game is made to play. Even with the RIG in my SIG, sometimes I get some stutters and hiccups but at pretty high settings....Hope that helps, good luck! :D

If thats the problem then i can tell you that 512 ddr 2100 with the xp1700 will eat it up! I have that and the only difference is that i have a radeon 8500 (might wanna look into that!)

But mine looks pretty good....
