I'm stuck with a laptop which I used to play sof before 2 years, which was pretty good to be honest, stable fps, and it kinda handle gaming at the point of games at that year, 2007. Thought the months I was having troubles with fps because of virus etc.. I bought a desktop and brought my laptop to cyprus.
Situation now. I reformated my laptop to stick with sof at cyprus when i have free time. I'm getting pretty bad FPS. I used to get 333 easy with this laptop, but now i CANT get more than 60, and I cant handle it, I cant move smooth its pretty lame, and Its getting OVERHEATED and its crashes, I think its the CPU, isnt it ?
HP PAVILION dv8000
geforce 7400 go
What should I do ?
Stathis.

loool at your replay. If his motherboard was broken then the whole Windows would be unstable and it would have some problems loading system maps.
Drunkn, if you have a PC problem:
1. Open it and clean it a bit "doubt it will have something"
2. What OS are you using? "Windows XP" still owns vista in any way.
3. Update the drivers on your Graphic card, because every 2 months as I have seen they came up with some new performances ect...
4. If you don't want to format your pc again, get a strong antivirus and check for viruses ( Kaspersky / Bitdefender 10 )
5. If those things won't help then open your pc , and check if everything is strong plugged in or what ever its called.
Try something of these 5 options.

bullshit, second time my laptop's motherboard crashed, it only caused that my wireless connection didnt show up + the system was working a bit slowly.loool at your replay. If his motherboard was broken then the whole Windows would be unstable and it would have some problems loading system maps.
the crashed motherboard actually melted inside the laptop and still windows was running.
xp's support time ends in 2010 and it will be no more updated, so u gotta move on to the next OS soon anyway. windows 7 is a good OS, vista appearance + xp performance2. What OS are you using? "Windows XP" still owns vista in any way.

Since the release of Soldier Of Fortune II in May, 2002. There hasn't been an anti-cheat available for version 1.00. This caused players to whine and ban people during clan wars for hacks. Reason most likely to be banned for is "2know", whatever the fuck that means. In early 2009, rumors started appearing around the SOF2 1.00 community that somebody was developing an anti-cheat. Everyone thought this was a great idea, seeing as the game had been out since the 17th century and nobody gave a fuck about it. All of the 16 players left on SOF2 1.00 cheered and supported the Hitler like figure who was developing this anti-cheat. When the anti-cheat was finally released, it was the biggest fucking failure in the history of video gaming. It was so humiliating that Michael Jackson died a few weeks later. The name of this anti-cheat was called "Mousetrap". It had been coded by some four eyed geek virgin who couldn't even code a fucking keygen.

Get a can of airspray and use that through the airvents to blow the dust out of your laptop. Also here's the undervolting guide I posted that could help you with your overheating CPU: http://www.demobase....?showtopic=8720

More than month old topic, but perhaps you still need help.
Didn't bother reading all the posts, but when you say it doesn't go over 60, then it feels like vertical sync is on. Go to NVIDIA control panel and turn it off.
i'll be locking it in few days as it feels the problem is solved for now though.
