The purpose of writing this post has changed, as i began by wnting to know why my original 'Splinter Cell' game and also the follow up one 'Pandora Tomorrow' awaas running so slow, almost like sreal slow motion ,even when i clicked full forward with my mouse wheel. Was quite bafled ,because the graphics on both are like very very awesome now. I had everything turned up high and use both 3D audio and EAX 'On'. Just ran like garbage originally.
Then finally i begin to wonder if anything in the properties of the video card were set wrong. I then went into the 3D settings in the newer control panel view, and rechecked my settings. most were Ok, but i had the bitmap filtering at trilinear instead of biliear. Instructions said for better performance set to bilinear. I did that as well as one other thing..i can't remember. most were set for performance and quality both.
Now this is very imoprtant: listen up! The menu has an option above for adding any certain porgram you want to run to override thier default by adding this program. I DID THAT.. and guess what??
I then re-entered the game and problems fixed... boy does the first SC look good and run well now. For those who have the newer video cards, try setting to high and replaying those. just beautiful ...
That is why i like Nvidia. thier stuff usually really works well the first time. I know, i'm a believer. ;)
