    I had this posted in the gaming forum, but i thought it maybe had something to do with my alienware.

    Recently got my battlefield bad company 2, and it seams that my gameplay is shuttering a lot in singleplayer.

    I have my graphic set to high, but no matter how low i set it i cant get rid of it?

    The only way i can get totally rid of it is to set the solution from 1900X1200 to 1024X"something"

    But in my COD modern warfare 2 i have my settings at the max, with solution set to 1900X1200 running it perfectly with no issues?

    Also when i hit caps lock by mistake, or are changing the DPI of my razor mouse its instantly turns to windowed game.. Why is that? and anyhow i can get that out of my way to?

    Thx in advance

    BC2 servers arn't so great. The best bet it to go to play now and select the type and map yourself. As far as slow downs I'm getting them too. Especially when loading. I don't understand why. But It hasn't froze the game on me


    Have not found a fix for it yet, So I just deal with it.
