FPS problem?
3. June 2006 - 17:29
I installed windows xp pro with service pack 2 a week ago, and since then, when I play quake, I have an FPS problem, In full screen, my fps can't go higher than 60, when I have com_maxfps "200", but when I go into minimized mode (Alt + Delete), i get 220 fps. I have tried reinstalling quake and e+, and playing with the default config, but nothing helps.

FPS problem?
This is most likely a driver setting problem.
If you have a nvidia card, you can configure the screen hz in the driver control panel.
Things are a little more tricky with a ATI card.
I strongly recommend you download a program like ATI Tray Tools - you can use it's Refresh Lock feature to set it up to work as it should 
Here is it's official english website : guru3d.com

You need to configure the hz in the driver control panel through the display properties, that should fix the problem if you disable vertical sync also that is

FPS problem?
could it be vsync for full screen?
it would drop ur fps to actual monitor hz (i think 60 by u 
)
so turn it off

Yes, but remember to set your hz (unless you like to get headaches 
)

Rudz, you were right, I checked if there were any drivers for my card, and there were. Now i get 200 - 400fps with the best settings thanks

Re: FPS problem?
use another drivers. Iam using detonators 52.16 for my GeFroce4 Ti4200. I have the most FPS with this version of drivers. I had problem with forceware and in my small test i find out that 52.16 producing more FPS than omega drivers
