OK, these questions have probably been asked before but I cannot find them anywhere out there. My system:
Athlon 64 3400+
ASUS socket-754 K8N nForce 3 Chipset MB
512 kingston ram (soon to be 1gig corsair)
Geforce fx 5900xt
On-Board Realtek '97 8ch. audio
On my previous computer before I upgraded I ran hl2 at about 40 fps with the same video card and ram and with an athlon xp 2600 processor at 1024 x 1280 (or whatever that resolution is I don't remember the numbers). Now, it runs at 37 fps occasionally jumping up to 70 in uneventful areas at the same resolution with the same things turned on as before, mostly everything on high expect aa and character detail. Any suggestions of what to do or why this is?
Also, I'm stuck in follow freeman at the part when you finally get inside the building and have to turn off the gravity generator things. I'm on the third one but I have to get through this maze of lasers first and I get to the end by the door but there is no way to cross without tripping a laser and the gravity gun doesn't work on anything. Thanks.
