All the new Orange Box games STUTTER LIKE A MOTHERFUCKER AND KEEP CRASHING AND FREEZING EVERYTIME THEY LOAD A LEVEL.

I've researched this problem and tried every workaround and tweak and script and console command to NO U avail.

I'm going to stick to playing Counter-Strike until Valve releases some updates and patches that fix these problems.

Is there an error that pops up when in crashes?

Try lowering DX to level 8...?

Not sure. Sounds like you have the same problem I did and that's what I did. After you lower it you can jack up all the settings (Anti-aliasing, resolution, etc).

I'm assuming you already tried that though. That probably wouldn't be a problem with your laptop too.

Valve games are pretty touchy. :kira:

I disabled sound and determined that the problem is graphical. The frames per second is really high, in the green, so you would think that it would be smooth, but it's all jerky and stuttery.

I turned mat_forcemanagedtexturesintomemory to 0 and that fixed most graphical stuttering but now I have audio stutter-crashes!

I fixed the stuttering problem by turning off all the tweaks that take advantage of multiple CPU's. Apparently Valve hasn't perfected their dual core support so it's still buggy.

It still crashes everytime it loads a new level in Portal. I haven't tested TF2 but that still probably crashes everytime it loads a map too.

There's your problem.

Try downgrading/upgrading back to XP, because Vista is the root of all evil. :betadadmunchkin: :betadadmunchkin:

I had audio stuttering crashes before I updated the drivers for my video card.

Iconoclast probably did that.

You don’t have time to ponder such questions, as Link has just grabbed a Smash Ball., I have NO U idea.

Sorry.
:arad:

I suck.
