All the games I've tried seem to drop in FPS periodically. In FF Tactics it works fine until you cast a spell, on Megaman X4 it doesn't even work at all. I've read the troubleshooting section as well as some threads on here to try and solve the problem myself, but obviously it still hasn't worked.

System specs:
Windows XP SP2
Intel quad core 2.4
Nvidia gtx 260
4gigs ram

I also have dl nHancer and set the opengl Multithreading off, which was suggested for another Nvidia user. I am using gpuPeteOpenGL2 for the GPU plugin, and the settings are:

Plugin: Pete's OpenGL2 Driver 2.9

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Tactics doesn't work well with 3D plugins.

Ok so Tactics is out, any suggestions on Megaman X4? Tried X5 also, works fine in the menus but once the game starts the FPS drop again. I'll try with more of my games to see if I get the same result.

to elaborate on what squall said in his post, generally its best if you use the software plugin for any 2d games.

Hi, download DirectX9.0 + your latest graphic drivers for your graphic card + "use fps limit" then it will work ;D
