My friend had a similar issue, he upgraded the RAM to 2GB since he was runnign Vista which is a resource hog ( so he says, i use XP). I personally had a problem with stutter during games and it was because of the fragmentation of the HDD, which fortunately wasnt too critical a disease to treat.

Ok, I'll try defragging my harddisk

Hey,


you may also want to try using a program such as ccleaner.

Guide on where to get it, how to install it, and how to use it here CCleaner: Quick Guide.

If it's still running slow after defraging and CCleaner, you may want to consider upgrading to 2gb ram especially for Battlefield 2.

Could there be a problem with the graphics card? Because Fifa did run perfect, now it's gone unplayable after 5 mins of playing

Hi there have you tried all the things in my previous post?,


have you also tried updating your Graphics card?, the latest drivers for your Graphics card are here ForceWare Release 162 .

I have ccleaner, did that, and defragged..it ran okay for 5 mins and then got sluggish again. I'll download the drivers now. If this doesn't work is there anything else you can think of that it could be?

Hmm, I'm also thinking a peice of ram may of slipped out of place inside your pc (it's happend to me before ),


could you right click My Computer - Properties and check the amount of ram it says.
