When i play FIFA 08 i find that the actual game is a bit laggy, its playable but its quite annoying. Does anybody know how to speed up my game so plays smooth?

UPDATE:

Before I play I go into task manager I shut down all the stuff I dont need.
I then play the game and it runs like a dream for about 2-3 minutes then starts lagging again.

What's your PC?

Intel Celeron CPU 2.66 GHz
Windows XP Pro SP2
Radeon 9250 256 MB with updated driver
1GB RAM

I have Intel 2.4
ATI Radeon 9250 128 MB
512 MB Ram
works absolutely fine for me on 1024x768 and Medium.
Try using Asus drivers for u'r Graphix Card, I had problem with Radeon catalyst, tried ASUS's Catalyst it was better.

ok

I have an intel 3.0 ghz dual core with 4 gig of ram and 8800 gts 320 meg and it runs laggy at 1600*1200 and this in windows xp.

In vista it is nearly unplayable. I believe EA had better code the game better for p.c instead of giving us yet another console port.

Same problem here.
I have an intel 1.67GHz dual core with 2Gb ram and a ATI X1600, besides the lack of my native monitor resolution 1280x800, it also runs too laggy to be playable.

I tried to lower the settings and to put the process in realtime without success.

If anyone finds out a solution to this porblem please let me know.

try changing the "RENDER_RATE_MODE =" value to 1 or 2 in the "cfg_pc_h" file.

Thanks, I tryed it and it worked a hell of alot better for another 2 or so minutes. Then the lagging started again.

i had the same problem but i found it got better when i got a bios update and then i could change the ums frame rate buffer to 128mb in catalyst because there was some bug or something in the catalyst software but now i can run the game pretty sweet. my specs are:

AMD TURION64 X2 1.6ghz
1gb Ram
ATI RADEON XPRESS SERIES 1150 256 hypermemory

lolz...there seems to be four threads with the same issue....
I had the same issue and fixed it by switching off cool n quiet mode for my amd processor in the BIOS. Worked perfect after that, no probs with CPU temps either.

good luck
