Hello there,

Firstly i dont know if you will know what im talkin about but may aswell give it a bash.
Ive recently upgraded from:-

AMD64 4000+
X1900X-TX 512MB
X1900 CF Edition 512MB

to:

BFG 8800GTX 768MB
Intel Duo E6700

Well, ive notice a problem where making movies for a game i play called Call of Duty2, what i do is open a demo and use a command called cl_avidemo 30 which takes 30 screenshots per second. Ive made a few movies and all have been fine but since upgrading to my new pc when i capture screenshots, import them into vegas then render,the movie seems choppy as if its dropping frames. Its the same rendering settings ive used for all my movies.

So since i never had this problem with my last setup im beginning to think theres a problem with gfx card capturing the screenshots or maybe a cpu problem but cant see that.

Heres a link to movie just incase you wanna see what im talkin about, its 450mb so not to bothered if you dont watch it

ftp://ftp1.srv.endpoint.nu/pub/repository/tek9/movies/BreathE.rar

Youll notice that the middle song in movie was done with old pc and isnt laggy at all, the rest was done on new setup.

Just want to know really if anyone knows of a problem with this gfx card or if anyone has had simalar problems before.

Thanks for any help and sorry if ive posted in wrong forum.

nah, its a command writen into the games console cl_acidemo which takes 30screenshots per second and saves them at .tga files.

Maybe a driver problem, this card aint been out long enough so drivers aint the best.
