pokepets360 Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 I got FRAPS 1.9D and it keeps slowing down my system.... does anyone else have this problem? its hard to make movies when the damn system is slow and jumpy... and how do I solve this problem?
Dgtadude Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 I have the same problem but i use fraps 2.0.0 . i can record movies but it is like 1 frame per second . I think it is because i dont have Intelpentium 4 .I use IntelPentium 3. It sucks i have a fast Harddrive , and more than enought RAM menory but i still get this damn pob.
Alex3305 Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 Look @ your harddisk space and set the framerate between the 20 and 30 fps.. And if it slows down .. Shutdown explorer.exe...
Dgtadude Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 ok see . I got 236 gigabites free . I close the xplorer and it is the same thing . I was wondering if it is because i have 2 harddrives and the one i use for windows is a slower one . and the other with 300 gigabites is were i store all of my games and fraps . So basicly windows runs on the slower one .nad maybe fraps runs there too?
Gamefreek Posted November 2, 2003 Posted November 2, 2003 It also has to deal with ur Video Card, my friends have a Radeon 9800 Pro and its smooth as can be, so if u get a low fps when recording look and see if u have a good video card, thats usually the problem
pokepets360 Posted November 2, 2003 Author Posted November 2, 2003 how do I find out what my video card is?

Running windows on a slower hard drive will slow down the other one to. Either install Windows onto the faster one or live with the lag.
Dgtadude Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 Hey Jack The Smack thanx for the tip . I just installed Windows to the other harddrive and fraps runs so smoth. Thanx Again . Cant belive ive wasted all this time being unable to record anything
Chuck Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 Fraps works like that. You need to do your stunts or whatever and then replay. Record with fraps during the replay.

Combine Posted November 3, 2003 Posted November 3, 2003 i have da same problem, when i make movies, then game is verry slow... This is caused by 2 problems: Your computer can't write to the hard drive fast enough. Your computer is to slow to do this. Possible fixes: Set resolution to a lower level Select the option "Half-size" (Fraps 2.0.0) Set recording frame rate lower (20 is good enough)[/i]
