I would jut like to know if there is somthing im missing o_O why isnt sauer running like it used too?

my best guess for now would be a possible problem with the driver, which may be outdated or something. i can't think of anything else other than this. or maybe you should update the OpenGL on your pc.

hmm , i cant understand why you got problems.
I also run sauer on my notebook , which goes with windows 7 and i´ve never got any problems since ive installed the game.

P.S : i got a nVidia 240 , maybe you should try to set the maxfps higher

Here is a link to the latest Nvidia driver for that card. ( Though I'm assuming you already have it )
http://www.nvidia.com/object/notebook-win7-winvista-260.99-whql-driver.html

If that doesn't help, you may find a slightly older driver thats works. Occasionally, support for some things get broken in a new driver version.

thanks windecker, this is exactly what it was. driver whiz sucks -_-

Glad to hear that the problem has been found.

I would recommend not using third party applications for updating/locating drivers. For the sake of system safety.

RaZgRiZ | 2010-10-31 14:49

I double that. Such applications, however good they may be always tend up to fuck up things due to corrupted installations or bad updating. I've had the same experience once, it wasn't pretty T.T

Windecker | 2010-10-31 17:34

Either that, or they find the wrong drivers.

thanks guys. i will have a look at these things and i will get back to you. :)
