[QUOTE="CBJammin103, post: 383571, member: 26010"] I'm running a Macbook C2D with 2GB of RAM in Windows XP Professional under Bootcamp 1.2's drivers. I just installed Steam and Counterstrike: Source. However, it is essentially unplayable! The frame rate is about 12FPS at the absolute best (that is, with everything pulled down and DirectX 7.0 forced). The thing that makes me raise my eyebrows is that I KNOW, under the older Bootcamp drivers (and perhaps with graphics drivers from Intel directly) I got totally playable frame rates (I would estimate 30-50FPS) with almost all the details and options at the highest levels. I uninstalled Windows some months ago, but at that time, I distinctly recall playing Counterstrike: Source with all the eye-candy with no choppiness. Has Apple suddenly forced, directly or indirectly, bad windows gaming performance with the new drivers? Or is there simply some Intel issue? If so, where can I find older drivers to give it a try? I don't really want to hear "Ohh, integrated graphics suxxorz" and such, as I am quite sure, as mentioned above, that the GPU is completely capable of handling CS:S. Thanks in advance! [/QUOTE]
Verification
How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
