Did I do something wrong?

Post by class43HS125 »

Hi,
As a reward for nearly reaching the big 60 I have up graded my PC to a,
Gigabyte H55M-UD2H MATX VGA LGA1156 motherboard
4 Gb DDR 3/DDR1333 ram
Intel Core i5 760 2.8GHz LGA1156 CPU
2 Western Digital 1.0TB Green Power 7200 64MB SATA HDD
Sapphire Radeon HD5570 1GB GDDR3 PCI-E Video card
LG SATA DVDRW

Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.

I took my pile of boxes of bits home and spent an evening having fun assembling it all and installing Windows. was a pleasant evening and I went to sleep a happy chappy :D.
Next day it was time to try the new graphics capability so I down loaded the steam software and all was well :D . Next I used an external USB drive and copied the complete Steam directory from my "old" PC and then copied it in to the Program files (x86) Directory on my new PC. I went on line with steam and verified RW2 . At this point I should point out that up until now I have been living with frame rates of around 14-21 :( .
I started RW2 and away it went frame rates up to 120 and all is well :D :D :D
I have read many stories on the forums and have followed many tails of woe.
I am a VERY happy chappy

I don't think you could have done it MORE wrong :lol:
