Hello,

I Ship Simulator Extremes on my computer. But he has a jerky picture (low FPS). Other games on my computer do it right, like GTA IV, GTA IV while many more "power" needs than Ship Simulator.

Who can help me with this?

BTW, the fact that "other games on Your computer" do it right will not mean that Your machine is able to run ShipSim Extremes in a proper way.

I did what you asked for, the dxdiag.txt found. Hopefully this is what you meant.

That's preciesly what I ment. In my opinion Your machine is good enough to run the game. Try to shut down as many as possible actions and program's running on the background, like Windows Messenger etc.
Good luck

Hi Kapitein-Maurice,
Your Asus K73SV notebook appears to be using the onboard Intel graphic chip instead of the Nvidia GeForce GT 540M that is in your notebook as shown in your DxDiag.
Display device in use: Card name: Intel(R) HD Graphics 3000
                                Manufacturer: Intel Corporation
                                Chip type: Intel(R) HD Graphics Family

Drivers available: NVIDIA GeForce GT 540M

If you follow this link it tells you about it.

Switching to the Nvidia graphic proccessor should give you a better frame rate. I am not sure of the way to change the graphic proccessor in use but maybe someone on the forum can help you with that.

Regards, Dave
