My problem with finalfantasy is that when ever i go to ingage in combat when i hit something i get lag and also when it hits me back now if i stand and allow it to hit me everything is fine O.o, i can use magic without lag, when i am around loads of people i get lag. now i've spoken to SE and they told me to turn down res and all that but it dont help, i shouldnt have to if i havnt had this problem before they then noticed i have the wrong driver and that i need 5.13 now i have the cd which came with my graphics card and it has 5.13 on there , when i uninstalling my driver and ati software then try to install this i get a message :
Severe INF error video driver not found setup was unable to complete the installation try to setup your display adapter with a standard VGA driver before running setup ...
This weird because i can easyily install the 6.14 driver but i cant go back to 5.13 ATI have taken their sweet time and when they did get back to me i was told to get rid of any files accociated in my registry which i didnt come across any, and i'm still waiting on their reply... please hopefully u can help i've been without this game for 6 months now O.o pulling my hair out, can i add all my other games work perfect such as sims 2 and guildwars |
