just 1 question:
is it a geforce?? what type? ...cause i've tested several gforces on bf1942 and they almost all lagged...
i found out it was due to the newer drivers on a older vidcard..
try earlier detonators...maybe even secondhand detonators (non-officials)
after that i replaced it with a radeon 9500 pro on a 1100 amd with sdram 128mb and it all worked without any probs on full specs on the bigger servers...
also friends of mine had these lagging probs ...aspecially with non-TI gforces ...
i even had a bigger prob later on with a creative gf4 mx440
i tried several drivers on that one and none worked with bf1942 ...all my polugons where rendered and not 1 skin :s
ok, the mx-cards are famous in this section but then again bf1942 was the only game that was this hard to render on a gf nvidia..whatever type besides the TI-line...
