Why does my NBA 2k11 go slow

[Kudra-man]

My game goes slow since i`ve bought it.Even when i put everything on low.I have all system requirements,even higher,but it still goes slow(under 30 FPS) .I hope that somebody could help me to solve this problem.

update your drivers?

make sure you dont have any virus scans running in the background.....i cant remember the other generic stuff to check

[Kudra-man]

i,ve closed everything,deleted all patches ,stopped all anti-viruses,but still nothing...it goes the same.

[JaoSming]

ok, so then what are your computer specs, what detail settings are you using in the game

[Kudra-man]

CPU: 4.2 Ghz Dual Core
RAM: 3 GB
Video card: 358 MB
Hard drive: 17.5 GB free

Whatever detail settings i put it goes the same.

[JaoSming]

what kind of video card

run dxdiag then goto the display tab

[karlsanada10]

Video card is too slow.

[Jark89]

Free up some more HDD space, your free space seems a bit low. HDD probably too full and fragmented.

[Kudra-man]

thx Jark89,but it goes the same 1-2 FPS

[karlsanada10]

Video card is too slow....

[Kudra-man]

karlsanada10 no its not it requers only 158 MB

[karlsanada10]

Then try everything at low,even the resolution.

[Kudra-man]

well i`ve put it on 640x400 everything at low except players they are on medium(because when its no low everyone is bald) and sideline players are off but then it goes 7 FPS .I have also tried game booster but i dont know how to use it

[karlsanada10]

Free more space, disable some services, disable everything in the background,especially antiv-virus. Are you using XP?

[Kudra-man]

I am using Vista.Is there any program that i could close all that with?

[Kristo]

He has 20GB free space, why should he free more? With my old HDD, I just had 2-3 GB free space and everything was running smoothly. Maybe it's dust problem, what are your CPU/GPU temps?

What was that program called, what closed all unnecessary programs for better gaming? Game-booster?

It can still be your video card. A high-memory albeit shared memory for video integration (and without 3D acceleration) would still have your game run slow.

[wicked waway]

videocard memory is irrelevant if the graphics card chip is too slow to perform the rendering task even if your videocard meets the memory requirements, if your videocard processor/chip is slow then you wont be able to run the game at acceptable settings

Also, what videocard do you have? 358mb sound like an odd number for vRAM, are you running on board?

[Justin_king6]

Try downloading Gamebooster I use it sometimes I can also give you a serial number to make it premium

[JaoSming]

no he wont

what about priority? open task manager, go to the second tab from 6 tabs and find the nba2k11.exe. right click it and find set priority, pick the high.

btw 17 gb space = your computer suck

[karlsanada10]

^It might crash.
