Sometimes my game on WME stutters or freezes
« on: September 21, 2009, 10:29:20 AM »

I have an older, slower laptop on which I play this game running Windows XP 2 ghz cpu with 2 gigs of RAM.  Sometimes my game on WME stutters or freezes then resumes again.  It does not seem to be based on a specfic event.

Is FPS the best metric to measure performance? Sometimes I notice the game on WME slowing down (cursor stutter or dragging) even though the frame rates is high. That it is possible with it to do?

If your mouse cursor lags, but the framerate is steady, perhaps the mouse lags in windows too? It can happen with certain hardware/driver configurations (my work computer gets cursor lockdowns during heavy harddrive activity for example).
