Greetz.

System: Athlon 1.4Ghz, Abit KG7-RAID 2xIBM 82GB Drives, NVidia GeForce
Pro Overclocked 300Mhz GPU 400Mhz Mem, Windows XP Pro.

GUys I got a £1700 PC and I can't even play C&C Renegade what
wrong!!??

I've update to Renegade_1015, I've installed the latest NVidia
Detonator Drivers released Yesterday 28.32, I've installed the VIA AGP
Driver 5.10.

No matter what I do when I play C&C Renegade (all resolutions) it's
unplayable cos it's soo jerky, can some body tell me why?

Castle Wolfenstein runs smooth at 1280*1024 >60fps.

I've tried reducing the detail, vertex shadding, resolution 640*480
and it's still jerky.

Help me please!!!

What sort of fps are you getting when you think it is jerky? At what point
is is jerky, all the way thru or just in situations like the ambush in the
first battle? Once I got past that it was a whole lot smoother running.
thanks, John.

Not enough RAM?

You didn't mention how much you've got, and Renegade is quite a memory
hog. Especially when paired with XP. For absolute smoothness in that game,
you oughta have more than 256 MB..

I second that, it was Jerky as hell for me till I upgraded the memory
from 128 to 256.
