Hi all, first post
I got this nice setup that people from Homeworld 2 forums assure me will run the (demanding) 2003 game very well, yet it runs slowly, and it's clearly graphics. There's slowdowns when a nebula shows up in the background, for example.
The game was released when XP and Direct x9 where already out.
I have...
Wolfdale 3.16Ghz
ASUS Rampage Formula
EVGA GeForce GTX280
G.skill 2 x 2GB DDR2 PC2-8500
BenQ 24" LCD 1920 x 1200
Vista Ultimate 64bit
I might download new Geforce drivers, and even update to Windows 7, but I suspect this will only bring me further away from compatibility.
Should I (and how?) create a partition and install in it XP, Dirext x9, and x9-compatible graphics-drivers...since this game was at the time XP-compatible?
How'd you go about it?
