Hi, I have been trying to play Modern Warfare 2 on my computer for a few days now after have been playing the game fine since December.

I am experiencing incredibly low FPS in my games, to the point in which it's virtually unplayable.

My first step was downloading the newest graphics card for my Nvidia 8800 GeForce GTS. I then chose "High Performance" settings.

I then found a good amount of success with the FPS, though it was still laggy.

I, for the fun of it, then turned UP the resolution, textures, etc. This made the game run even faster and higher fps. Which puzzled me.

I then downloaded the new directx v.10 rather than the 9.0. And, I upgraded from 2 gigs of ram to 3 gigs. The most my computer can handle in 32-bit.

I then reinstalled the entire game.

I chose "Optimal Settings", as it suggested, hit play, and it's soo low on FPS that it literally takes about 45 seconds for it to recognize my mouse moving.

I have ran checks for spy-ware and viruses and have found nothing.

Please get this thing going again.
