Saintmat Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Do you clean out your computer? Delete temporary files, which should speed it up. Delete any old games you will never play again as well. FM with Internet can be a slow process anyway Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jedaye Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 fist things i would do is to run an anti-spy program/anti-virus scans (etc) then a defrag of the hard drive. Make sure drivers etc are up to date, and try it again. If you still have problems im sure people more qualified then myself shall reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jedaye Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I understood your set up when you said gig more then i understand another thread that says he has a dual core cpu but 896 RAM - I can understand your mistake but his set up makes me scratch my head and think urm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShearersTino Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 This has nothing to do with ram. The game uses as much processing power as it can get its hands on. Try unticking the threading box, dependendt on how SI have implemented the multi threading it may not use up both of your cores allowing firefox et al to work on the other. Also if you antivirus is crunching along as well as FM it could really eat your CPU cycles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
