Vista 64 and FFR

Re: Vista 64 and FFR

You aren't alone Rubix.
Win7 x64 does the same thing.
SM & FFR run like crap.

Your best bet is to download & install WinXP (legally, I swear ) and use it for SM/FFR.

Edit: I know this for a fact, the same songs I can AAA on my laptop (WinXP x64) I can't AA on my computer.

It's not junk either, Phenom II X4 940 @ 3.2GHz, Radeon HD 4870.

This, and you can have two OS' at the same time (look it up)

Keep XP 32bit, remember we are using this for compatibility only.

Re: Vista 64 and FFR

I assume you have UAC off, right? That's been known to lag everything.

Re: Vista 64 and FFR

I've been in and out through Win7 and haven't got anywhere. UAC off, HW acceleration on/off, every option I could think of.
Like I said before, installing 32bit WinXP as a secondary OS is your best bet.

Since you have a Win7 ticket and will be formatting/installing anyway, wait until it's available and do both in one go. (This way you can make two partitions, etc.)

Re: Vista 64 and FFR

so i must say, windows xp is def. better than 7. I recently had 7 on my computer and was experiencing lag constantly on FFR Beta, and the another way engine. So I went and searched around and found something interesting. Windows XP SP2 64-Bit Superior. One of my friends told me about this OS because the maker is a friend of his. I downloaded the ISO and installed it on my computer. I now have SM 3.9, 3.95, 4, WoW, elder scrolls games, etc. all on this one OS, and I do not lag one bit. Rubix, to be honest, search for this OS or PM and I'll give you a link. It's def. something that you should do. My computer has damn near specs like yours does, except the only thing you might have on me is the graphics card and you have a 24 inch monitor. Mines 21.5. :P But definitely try it out if you want. I'd recommend this OS to anyone that plays rhythm/flash games constantly.
