I am trying to run my playstation 2 thru my ATI TV card so i can record live footage of the game. I have sound and picture. The problem is my character l"lags", takes a second to respond to the controller. Any help ?

First, NEVER display your serial number out to the whole public!    Second, You might need to add some more RAM... I know that BF2 lagged for me until I added another gig. You might need to... We'll try to save you money though, so lets try something else first... Close out ALL programs that you don't need ot have up. That will save memory. Close antivirus scanners, etc.

Wow thanks didnt know about the serial number. I dont lag with BF2 at 512. Thats what has me lost. I have a GIG now. Hooking the playstation up now will brb.

Give us a hollar with your results then. Also, the main reason I don't like giving out serial numbers is becuase with that, someone can change ownership, etc. It's better not to.

I shut down everything as i do with BF2. I really dont see a diff. When I move the look or site it doesnt stop ..sorta run around back and forth. Like if you are aiming its impossible.

Well... Keep in mind that game consoles weren't really built to be plugged into a computer  :-/  How much memory does your video card have?

Its the ATI Radeon 9250 240MHz VPU 128MB DDR memory at 400 MHZ. I have the ps2 plugged into another card the TV card. Should it be into the graphics card ? I will post a link for you to see what I want to do maybe you can see how they did it... http://media.putfile.com/Socom-Dance73
