Gaming issue, Empire Earth
I have just built a new computer. I currently have the Gigabyte gv-nx66t128d geforce6600gt video card. Everything was working great until i loaded Empire Earth one. The game loaded fine and the updates from sierra were installed but the game would lag tremendously then freeze for good after 10 mins of gameplay. I tried downloading different drivers (unsure which ones i needed) and uninstalling EE and reloading. I have the AMD 3500+ 2.2 GHz processor and 1 gig of ram. I dont think it could be a hardware problem. It was working great on my roomate's comp and he had a dell setup with a 3 gig cpu by intel. Now after downloading drivers (I think they were drivers) from Gigabyte.com.tw and from the nvidia site i think the problem got worse. Now EE wont even update when i completely unintal then reinstal. Like i said i dont think it's hardware or connections i think it could be a software compatibility issue (i have sp2 xp) Tonight i will try Rise of Nations with tapped out graphics to see if it is happening on not just EE but all games. I also have a wirless connection through a lyxsus router. I dont know if that could have anything to do with it. The game lags then freezes and now i cant update it (it shows some error message) and try playing it with possibly new drivers. Could it be that i needed new drivers or inproperly installed them the first time? Help Me!!!
