Prince of persia WW runs slow! (A.M 9000) ( i now im a noob, but plz help. Thx)

Kesto

Hi everyone...
I havent modded my driver yet... And the game POPWW runs very slow... Even on low settings...
And the weird thing is... That the game automaticly detects the best graphics the first time the game is running.. And it set's everything to HIGH?!?!
Can i solve the problem with the modding tool?
Or is my Graphic card just to shitty to run that game

Hello:

There are no significant differences between a desktop Radeon 9000 core or a Mobile version. And hense, there is always support in games when the proper drivers are installed. The only thing that would make a mobile chip different is when you try playing the game on battery power, and the CPU and GPU throttle down to save power.

you could also try the latest ATI offical drivers with our mobility modding tool to get them to install.

mobility 9000 is a radeon 9000 series, and the 256MB was system RAM, not video RAM...the 8500 series came in 64MB and 128MB flavors.

But glad you got it working...and yes, as Allan said, mobility modder will also work wonders

What version of Omega Driver? I have the same problem you had...(with KOTOR)
But every time I try to install an Omega driver I get the "INF error Video driver not found" and the DHmodtool gets nonresponsive when I try it. Any help?

I have also not been able to get the newest Catalyst drivers modded and installed with my Mobility 9000 card. I think if you use an older version of the Cat drivers it might work, but I haven't tried. Just went back to using the Omega drivers.

And yes, your M9000 card is supported and as stated earlier the 256MB RAM requirement was system RAM not VRAM.

I'll tell you all I have tried:
1) When I try to install an ATI official driver I use the modtool but then the pc start to restart again and again until I restore to the previous setting;
2) With the Omega Drivers I get the INF error Driver not found, but the modtool doesn't not help at all.

Juanymerja, since we are already having this discussion on your particular thread, I will continue there.
