*NOTE*...Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2 Performance Problems
This is a discussion about *NOTE*...Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2 Performance Problems in the Windows Games category; After buying this game several days ago. . . right off the bat I was having problems with the game stuttering VERY BADLY at several points in the game. Some tracks were worse than others. I visited the EA forum and noticed that everyone else was having the same problem on different machines.
After buying this game several days ago...right off the bat I was having problems with the game stuttering VERY BADLY at several points in the game. Some tracks were worse than others. I visited the EA forum and noticed that everyone else was having the same problem on different machines. I read one guy's post that he tried the Detonator 40.72's and the problem went away. So, after trying several different things to no avail, I decided to give them a try. Once I tried them, all of the stuttering went away....the game now runs as it should. Just thought some of you with this game and an NVIDIA card might be interested in this info. Good Luck!

NFS HP2 also has problems with Radeon 8500 cards, using the latest BETA drivers from ATI can fix the issue. Also moving the special effects down 1 notch can fix the problem too.

Yes, but they can cause other problems. For those who want to play it safe, I'd suggest waiting for the next WHQL Certified drivers to be released.

The stuttering isnt from bad driver or other, it is due to HP2 is such a CPU hogging game(so as many recent release) that any CPU of sub 2G performance would experience serious performance issue, you could solve it simply by lowering one stop of the "world detail" level, that would be silky smooth provided that you graphic card is not too slow.
It is really horrible that games with so CPU cycle hunger are more and more in recent releases

Excuse the phrase, and if there any children in the area, cover your eyes, but Nvidia and MS have been in the sack for quite some time.... With DirectX catering to Nvidia and with the Xbox...
