i used to get around 80-90 fps or so in CSS, now i'm barely getting by with 20-50 and it lags like crap in maps like aztec and assault; what could be the problem?
1.) i've gotten the virtual memory issue like 3 times...i have it set at 2000mb/2000mb
2.) no overheating or overclocking
settings:
1024 * 768
4aa/2af/all high

Lol I know you better than this but I feel it is standard to say it, have you done any driver updates lately? I would say do a rollback, or take out the card then re-insert it.
Can't see why it would do that all of a sudden.

no, see, the wierd thing is that i've had this problem for some time, but i figured it would eventually go away (which it did), and for the past week or so it has been coming back to haunt me
and no, i've been sticking with 71.89's ever since they've came out...hmm..maybe it could be the 71.89's problem?

Yeah but why would it be all of a sudden, or did it start it as soon as you put in that driver? It's weird it does it from only time to time then goes away, wonder if it would have to do w/ game issues.

kind of off topic but i thought u had a 2005fpw or whatever that one widescreen was.
on topic though, try blowing all the dust out of ur card and make sure it isnt overheating and causing it to lag and it could be your ping spiking also. or it could be drivers you never know. just keep on troubleshooting.

1.) mmkay i'll try new drivers tomorrow
2.) i'll try blowing teh dust too
3.) yes i do have a 2005fpw (20.1in widescreen 1680*1050 :D), but i li ke to play windowed in 1024*768 (i like multitasking)

spyware adware? trojans? they can slow your system down big time... are you having the same problem with other games? or just counter strike?
