5150 omega drivers directx problems???
ok i just got my 5150 with a 2.66 p4, 512 mem, Nvidia fx 5200 32meg. i installed the omega drivers and they work great with all my games except freedomfighters.
while playing freedomfighters the whole game runs like its on supercharged crack, when i move forward back ect. its like he is running about 100 mph,, the game is playing way to fast.
also i did a direct draw and direct 3d test in dxdiag and the direct x box moves so fast you cant even tell its a box.
just would like to know if anyone has seen this or if it is normal, well it shouldnt be normal paying freedomfighters. now as for all my other game they work great. madden 2004, broken sword, GTA3, syberia 2,and i just bought farcry (VERY AWSOME GAME) and it runs better then i thought it would.

Qui, how well does doom 3 play on your 5150?? I've had nothing but problems running doom 3 on my 5150 (see specs). Frames are low, its very choppy and lag spikes occur. Let me know what drivers you are using, like mobo, CPU, graphics, etc.

I am running stock drivers except Vidoe.. for that I got the INF files from Laptopvideo2go.com and downloaded the 61.77 drivers from nvidia and installed those..
Doom3 runs.. average of about 20-25 FPS nothing spectacular.. but playable on a laptop none the less.
I also play Desert Combat.. and it runs great.. no video lag.. also helps that I have a super fast server that I play on.
