Does anyone know of probs with fps shooting up and down. I usually get 85fps but now after re-installing everything I get fps swapping between 42 and 85.

It seems to be related to other players movement on map or even sometimes if I go thru certain parts of a map but not always the same areas. It's completly baffling.

I've tried:;;;

reinstall isdn card
reinstall graphics/sound drivers
Re-install HL
Blanking out my config and autoexec and restarting it.
Installing latest drivers for graphics and sound
Desktop resolution to diff settings
the usual fps_max and modem settings



Please help. :)

Tried installing Motherboard drivers?
If you have a via chipset get the latest ones from
www.viaarena.com

As Badger says, the Via 4-in-1 drivers are the most important for VIA chipset motherboards - the AGP miniport is critical.
After that, if your GFX card is GeForce then go for latest Detonator drivers from Nvidia - www.nvidia.com
