Sub Zero Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Has anyone been able to play with their pc connected to the television? The game seems to start ok, but when the loads, and I press S to start, everything freezes. Im using a Nvida card with the latest drivers.... Is there something in the display properties i'm overlooking? Or could my PC be to puny to run like that? 1.2GHz Celron 64MB Nivida 420 MX 512MB SDRAM BTW.... I am runnung the the game with the lowest possible graphic settings (in-game) and the card is set for preformance.
RedAssAg05 Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 How are you connecting to the TV? S-Video? Composite (the yellow RCA jack)? Component? VGA? Also, that video card is pretty out-dated. How does the game perform using a monitor?

OK you guessed it, you'er PC isn't powerful enought to run Lock on on your TV I was running FC on a Philips HD TV and had a lot of problems with overscan ect.. My set up is AMD 64 3200, 1 gig of ram, and I tried 3 different GPU's, Nvidia 5700 256, 6600 256, and 6800 Ultra and couldn't get it run the way its supposed to.. I finally realised that it was not going to happen and since then replaceed the Philips 32" HD TV, with a 32" LCD tv/monitor and now things are running very well.. Nice clean graphics and not to much stuttering ( Its actually only noticeable when I have too many AC and a lot of targets in the mission and I'm flying over a city) so when I have this issue I've managed to reduce it but lowering the scenes to medium.... I'm planning on an upgrade but I'm waiting for Visio to be released and then I want to see how this will affect all my flight sims intel Cor i7-6700K ASUS ROG MAX VIII Extreme G.Skill TridentZ Series 32 GB Samsung 850 Pro 1TB SATA II ASUS GTX 1080/DIRECTX 12 Windows 10 PRO Thrustmaster Warthog Oculus Rift VR
