Maybe it's that particular BIOS. Revert back to the old one, see if that solves your problem. Since 915G has inbuilt gpu, this seems logical.

But why other games dont get affected ??
Even HFS hot pursuit 2 isnt affected . why ??

geekysage · 19-12-2005, 06:12 PM

sagargv, that's something that i can not answer with surety, especially because we don't even know what the problem is. Please revert back to the old bios and see if that solves your problem before we begin with the troubleshooting.

PS: Maybe NFS uses some technology that is not supported by the new bios i.e. the gpu. If you google, you may find a better answer.

What and how should i google it ??

geekysage · 22-12-2005, 10:16 PM

Browse to google.com and type your motherboard chipset and NFS UG2 in the search field. Also try "need for speed" instead of just NFS.

Examples:
915G bios update NFS UG2 problem
915G bios update NFS UG2 error
915G bios update Need For speed UG2 problem

..also try putting the specific bios version in the search field.

like: 915G bios v.x update NFS UG2 problem

Hope this will get you started.

There's no sure way to tell!

sagargv · 24-12-2005, 10:25 PM

why is this happening ?
Now can i flash back to my old bios without problems ??

**kalpik** · 24-12-2005, 11:15 PM

Yes you should try that!

sagargv · 27-12-2005, 06:12 PM

i borrowed most wanted rom a friend.
Guess what . it worked all too well.

BUt i observed something. whenever a car with rich details is displayed on the screen ,fps drops .
this occurs in the main menu.
once the race starts , no problemo.<only in mostw,but in ug2 , always problem>
Now solution to this problem , thanx

i have seen a strange prob in NFS U2, when i installed the game, it runs at 1024x768, but it progresses, it becomes slow and at stage 4, it moves like a bycycle, then i make 800x600, and runs well, i have 2 profiles, but same case, any idea?

QwertyManiac · 30-12-2005, 12:25 PM

Do u play it continuously ? then perhaps memory fillups...

EDIT - also perhaps bcoz more maps have to be loaded, but I didnt experienced ny thin like this

choudang · 30-12-2005, 12:52 PM

nope, when i start normally and loads my 1st profile, it becomes slow, but if i load 2nd profile its ok.....

sagargv · 30-12-2005, 06:08 PM

i have to try that.
But the basic Question Why ?
What's the solution ??
God dammed it it , i uninstalled it an hour ago .!!
anyway i'll try

**kalpik** · 30-12-2005, 07:22 PM

Hello,

Thanks a lot for all ur help.

I got really angry and blasted my vendor.He came home personally , and

he flashed to the old bios only b'coz i insisted. he promised that he

would get a replacement in 2 days if something went wrong . and

everything went OK . But the 2 games was not (same prob :2 fps in

game ) running well at all.Then suddenly he said that XP is getting

corrupt ( i dont know how, he said it was from experience ) . He

reinstalled and XP on C ( previously it was on D ) . and now voila ,

all games OK and working much faster.( POP was giving 2 fps in game ,

now it gives 30fps !!!!!!!!!!)

He says that he has set up about 50 systems with the same asrock mobo

that i have , and i am the first one to say that i'm unsatisfeid.Then

, i told him that it was b'coz of the problem and he said that the

mobo was fine.He says that intel mobos ( he has put up abt 10 of em)

give much more heat and this mobo though has a small performance hitch

with graphics cards , it is much better regarding to heat he says .

Also the mobo supports both agp8x and pcie . he quotes that all

graphics cards that he has tried on them have worked ( even ones that

are not listed in the support website ).

What could i say ? Whatever it was , the system was back to normalcy.
But look at this strange thing. I had a "working in 16color win98" on

C and XP in D. He installed XP over 98 on C. Now the XP on D is not

deleted !! I get 2 XP's in the OS choices menu . One that leads me to

new XP on C and another that leads me to old XP on D !!!!!!
Have u ever seen this situation . 2 XP's on same system.
And can anyone tell what could have gone wrong in my "old" XP.
