Will Nolf 2 And Mafia Work On A Geforce 4 Mx440?

[Vamp]

I have a P4 1.7ghz, 256 ram and the Mx440... Awhile ago a friend lent me those 2 games, and they ran like absolute shit... I think this was because the sound drivers I was using were conflicting with the 3D card, after I gave the games back, I started playing games like Ghost Recon and Undying...Those games ran like utter shit, so I got rid of those sound drivers and installed old ones...Straight away those games ran absolutly beautifully. Do you NOLF 2 and Mafia will run well now as well?

I have Mafia and it runs great, no lags or nothing! Just lower the Draw Distance a little if your having slow downs. I don't know about the other game.

What are your pc's specs? You see, the reason I got new sound drivers, was because the sound was fucked in Mafia!!! whenever I shot/hit someone or an NPC spoke, the sound was played incredibly fast, but other sounds played fine, EG, voice-overs in cutscenes and stuff.

my mafia use 2 work fine on my geforce 4 mx440 64mb ddr

but now ive upgraded 2 a geforce 4 ti4800 128mb ddr and boy it makes a mx440 look like a sega master system

ti's rule..GET ONE..altho saying that the new geforce fx is even better than the ti

What kind of sound card do you have? It might be time to upgrade.

Avance onboard sound-card...Sound doesn't need to be amazing for me in games, just as long as it works.

I feel the same way. However, the onboard sound might be the reason why your games don't play right. It might help if you get a cheap Soundblaster instead. I have a PCI128 and a Geforce4 MX440, and I never have problems playing newer games (though I haven't tried the two that you mentioned). GTA3, Vice City, RTCW, Max Payne, NOLF, and Jedi Outcast all play fine on my 550 Mhz PIII.
