Wind Waker problems, starts of 100% but slows down dramatically

[Ramy91]

Hi there,

As noted in the thread description, I have a problem with Zelda: Wind Waker. When starting up the game runs perfectly, no problems whatsoever. But either after a cutscene, or just at a random point in the game, the game speed halves and so does the fps. I've been trying to fiddle around with the settings here and there, but I can't really seem to make it stable so it runs 100% all the time.

Below I've posted my settings as well as my hardware set up:

Processor: Intel Core i5 M430 @ 2.27GHz 2.27GHz
Graphic card: Geforce GT320M 1gb
Ram: 4gb, 3.87 usable







Thanks a lot!

Advice, use the Snipping tool that comes with Win 7 and also where is your Graphics enhanchement screen and Audio?

Ohh and you have the ZTP hack on for wind waker, check that off.

Also when using the telescope the FPS drops a lot strangely enough.

Sorry about that. Thanks for giving me a heads up on the snipping tool, had no idea it existed .

Did you check your temperatures? Sounds like the system is probably overheating.

Yes I have, and I figured that this could be one of the causes as well. My CPU gets like 92ish(!) degrees when emulating, as well as just playing games. Any idea how I could lower my temperature?

Clean it out. Open it up and blow out all of the dust with a can of dust off.

Don't play on a bed, prop the laptop up on books but leave the bottom open, buy a laptop cooling pad with built in fans.

Maybe put the laptop on a stand so that there is airflow underneath the laptop.

A laptop that overheats can be considered faulty. I would return it and get a laptop that is better designed, personally.
