Title: Painkiller game problem
Post by: Triple Ace on January 30, 2005, 10:14:35 pm
I got painkiller a couple days ago and I have a serious proble. When there is a cinematic whether it is a scene from the game or the logos when it starts up it just gets slow and choppy. I have tried updating my drivers and the game but it is no good. My specs are 1.6 ghz Athlon, 512 ram, 40 gb hard drive, and a GeForce FX 5700 LE.

I used to get this on some older games, I think it's to do with DirectX and the way it displays movies or the like. Does it play the movies off of CD or install them on the computer?
