<div class="IPBDescription">with FPS</div> Hey, I feel silly asking about this in here, but let's see if someone 'knows' the answer to this one..

I have a Dell Latitude D600 with 512 meg of ram, 1.6 gig processor etc etc etc..
It has a Radeon 9000 Mobile in it
I can play NS for a period of time... with my FPS "hovering" around 100.. but at this point.. my FPS drops to between 4-7 and the HL process starts taking up 50%+ of my CPU usage..

There are no viruses/adware etc on this box...

This happens also when I'm PT'ing maps...

It is plugged into a docking station.. gonna try to pop it out and get a manual connection to ensure it's not the docking station.

But any other ideas?

    ok so that seems to have corrected the issue..
    so the issue is either the network cable I was using OR the cheap hub I was plugged into.. will find out tomorrow..
