Recently I started getting a bug. I get a really bad FPS drop when rotating the camera, it goes to around 15 FPS. This is really odd since on my card - Radeon 6850 - I can run games that are 20 times more demanding than SA.

Anyways...Here is how it started:

I was playing a game with XFire ingame enabled on said game. We had to do something in our server so I thought I would just pop in for a few minutes and close the other game while SA is booting. For some reason though, closing the game took longer than I thought and afterwards I got said lagg. I do not get any opcode or any windows errors.

This happens on my clean and my modded install, so its not a issue with mods. I have checked Kaspersky and Data Execution Prevention and everything is normal. In the background I am running an ASUS branded Catalyst Control Center 11.11 and Kaspersky Internet Security 2011. I also use XFire for game time tracking but I do not have XFire ingame enabled as I use enb. I also use SAAC for using my Xbox 360 controller as a gamepad. This bug just started happening and it is annoying since I am taking part in the development of a server.

Does it still happen when you disable ENB?

I always keep my programs to a minimum while playing any game, so there isnt much to shut off.



That is what is running when I launch SA.

Edit: Tried CFG fix, no change.

Double Edit: After playing a few other games on Xfire, I have noticed stuttering and FPS drops on games that used to work fine, similar to SA. I might try a completely clean install of Xfire.

Of course it will go higher, there is nothing to render.

This is annoying me, because I am also getting bugs on other games like lost backgrounds. I think I might check up on the Xfire forums and see what I can find there.

Edit: After getting a technician in here I learned that a reinstall of the OS was the only option. So I reinstalled the OS, and it works fine.
