I installed windows 7 today, and theres a problem. I have these strange fps spikes. I use chrises fps config (the middle one, forgot its name). I used it with xp sp3 too, and there were no problems at all. I have maxed my fps @ 120, and these spices occur every 2-3 seconds. It drops to 70-80, and then pops back to 120. It playable, but it messes up my scout aim. Just glitching around with my crosshair.

been having something like this for ages on XP, cant help it. I suppose it’s my CPU (T2500, 2×2.0 ghz) that’s limiting it :/

70fps for 2.5ghz cheap dual core is normal on w7

i had 50 on 2.8ghz e6400 which has less cache so there is the difference…
so ur cpu should have rly big cache to have >100fps on 2.5ghz

just go back to xp or dual boot

Dont’ know if you’re having soundstutering aswell or if you just have fps drops.
If your sound “stutters” it’s likely “stuttering”.
It’s a huge problem for many players, including me.

Here’s some info about it and some minor fixes for it.

There is still no complete solution though.

fps configs wont do much (unless ur playing with that crappy gpu on insane res)

either OC ur CPU or go back to xp

nah its alright. I used your max fps cfg (the one that gives the most fps) + set my fps_max to 80, and its good now!

even if it’s ok you should go back :p

i don’t get why anyone would use any other windows os than XP for gaming :D
