Well I've tried updating my graphic card drivers...the card is called S3 Graphics ProSavage DDR.

I downloaded the drivers from the website..and FoF opens...but ONLY when I have my color display to Medium (16bit)...it doesn't work on High (32bit).

Now I've tried all I can do...I have 3x the needed RAM...and a pretty good processor...I've minimized all the FoF graphic settings...have tried Noob Skin thingy, and RF-Mod...so WHAT DO I DO?

I played it at my friends and it was an absolute BLAST...I have Guitar Hero...but how I can have any song on this is just amazing...please help me...I have been trying to fix this for months!


By the way...the lag is about a second off in the menus...making the game unplayable when in songs.

ummm try change your processors to one by setting the fof.exe affinity in the task manager with a check mark in the first.

Graphics that don't seem to work, even with updated drivers-
These are on-board/built-in graphics, and FoF uses openGL which requires a certain amount of graphics acceleration to run smoothly, which many built in video cards lack, therefore not working with fof.

SiS 300/305
SiS 315
SiS 651C
SiS 741
SiS 760
SiS Mirage Graphics
SiS 661 FX/Gx Mirage
Intel 82845G
Intel 82852/82855 GM/GME Graphics Controller
Intel 82865G Graphics Controller
Intel GMA950
Intel 915GM
Intel 945GM
Intel 945GZ Express Chipset
VIA/S3G KM400/KN400
VIA/S3G Unichrome Pro IGP
S3 Graphics ProSavageDDR

If you have something like this, and have the latest graphics drivers, and it still isn't working, then the only option would be to get a graphics card.

Even though that makes me sad...THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THAT!

Now I know exactly why it doesn't work...and how to fix it....thanks A LOT!

You can close topic now, at the bottom of the page. If you can't find it, ask a Mod to do it for you.
