(NFS:MW) Jumpy framerates on an 8600GT

Hi all, been a while since I've posted around here and I apologize if this was asked elsewhere. I've had NFS Most Wanted for my PC since I had an old FX5500 and a P3 running 1.9ghz, and, well... it was barely playable with most stuff switched off. Well, I've since upgraded to my current monstrosity-...

Multiple careers is the plan for me. I'm currently trying to go thru with only American cars, like the Cobalt, Mustang, and Ford GT. Then I'll make German and Japanese careers.

As for "My Garage," I currently have 15 cars in it. Dunno if that's just Black Edition or what.

Yes, I've noticed the blue screen glitch a lot myself. It also lags hard whenever I set the detail to anything other than "Low." I've also noticed a glitch with several 4-car garages. Put any more than 3 in them, and you'll loose custom paint jobs in other garages. Other than that, the gam...

GTA has never been about graphics. That's why I like it. It won't kick the crap outta my hardware, which makes it a LOT easier to enjoy the gameplay. Bad lag is the one reason I haven't finished FarCry yet.

Can't wait till I can get up to EB Games again. I gotta jack me sometin' I can slam-n-dub!

Muscle cars. Hope they add a '69 Boss 429 and/or a '67 Shelby GT500. I'll also want my Miata back, I liked that car in U2. I don't like exotics that much. Sure, they can whoop ass, but I like to imagine cars that were/are affordable (I say WERE because an old Mustang or Bel Air can be pretty pricey ...

Tho for some games (like NFS:U2 :P) I turn off the in-game soundtrack and rock out to some Led Zeppelin and Steppenwolf!

Midtown Madness!

Anyone here ever played an old game called Midtown Madness? It was made by Microsoft and had a pair of sequels, the second of which went to Xbox and sadly never came to PC. The first was based in Chicago, the second in San Francisco and London. The third was in Paris and Washington DC. All of the ga...

"The free roaming system didn’t work that wel"? Since when? Works fine for me. I prefer to blast across the town in search of races rather than select them from a cruddy menu. Hell, I spend more time blasting around NOT looking for races more than I do anything else in NFS:U2!

r1c4 is DEFINITELY yellow. The rim choice in the top pic is kinduv a pearlescent peach. Not a bad color, tho, it looks pretty good! I like the second choice better, tho.

And r2c4 is kind of a yellow-orange.

Also, make sure you wait for the image to upload completely. For example, with MSN 8, it can take forever. I'll often get impatient with it, and go back to the main page before the upload is complete, and wonder why my car wasn't uploaded.
