I was able to run nr2003 and record with fraps at a stable 12fps which i would then speed in sony vegas. Now all of a sudden, even when running the default mod at default track or even at the menu screen, every time i record with fraps, fps won't go above 4. I reinstalled nr2003 and fraps, even tried using playclaw, same problem. Can anyone help?
Thanks

Could just be fraps just straight up screwing up, fraps is always on and off with that stuff. You ever check if theres anything running the background?

At first i thaught it might be my new Momo mapper slowing down the game (the only thing that i installed before it stopped working). I disabled that, still the same. I even tried with almost everything disabled, only the wifi and antivirus logo in the toolbar where showing. So i don't think it's about something else running at the same time. I don't think it's fraps cuz as i said, i tried with another software, GameClaw, and i still had the same problem

Hm, What OS do you run?

7 home premium

Have you turned off UAC?

yra, cuz nr2003 wouldnt run with it on. It used to work last week, then it stopped. That's what bugged me

Might just be errors in your OS then, odd for it to just stop outta no where. Actually, I think you might want to have your wheel plugged in, I know when I don't my game screws up pretty good. And if not, look in your graphics card control panel for the pre rendered frames section, if its at 3, put it at 0, if its at 0, put it at 3.

ok well. I'll try with my wheel than

yes, i think the wheel was the problem, just did a quick test and everything seems to be back to normal. Thanks!

Np.

I've been using Fraps for a long time time now but I use Pinnacle for post editing, so far I have not had a framerate problem with it using Win 7 Ultimate. I use a joystick for racing so if it was your wheel let us know, I for one woill pass the info to others I know that use Fraps. The other thing is, I know fraps is free but I paid to get the full regged version, I actually think it works better now but it may all be in my head too. I'm just glad I don't get the watermark now.
