Help Gforce card is playing jerky

[suzy456]

Hope someone can help me!

I was using a Savage 4 8mb card and my dvd's, divx's and games worked perfectly. Anyway I bought a game which needed faster graphics so I bought a geforce mx440 64mb AGP card thinking I would now have amazing graphics..but its worse than before. Power DVD and media player are is playing jerky both actual DVD's and vob files on my pc. My divxs play fine, but the game is the worst of all and its unplayable.

I have put the slider setting to better performance in the nvidia settings and I removed the old drivers.


What can I do now. I feel like putting the old card back.

Thanks

Suzanne

I'm no expert on graphics cards but i recently upgraded my Geforce 2 mx440 to Geforce 4 ti 4800se and found that my original card the mx 440 had a lot of limitations to it (in terms of the setting i could tweak) as this was nvidia's basic card.

My self i never problems using the mx440 play back using powerdvd have you tried to download the latest drivers?

Just one other thought whats the spec of your pc perhaps you don't have enough memory (You can't ever get enough!) as i think (anyone correct me if i'm wrong) you would be using more system resourses to play a movie directly off your HDD!

Probably its the right thing since windows is still regognising some of your old settings for the previous card.
