Alright, I downloaded FoF v1.2.451 yesterday,
installed, and everything..
But when I started it up, the game would lag.
It would take, like 1.5 seconds for it to respond.
I use Windows Vista Ultimate right now. The game worked perfectly when I had XP.
Could I get some help?

Explain lag, like 1.5 seconds from the time you double click the .exe untill FoF starts up, or lag like 1.5 seconds from selecting something in the game 'till it actually loads?

The second one.
If I want to move from 'Play Game' to 'Tutorial' it'll take about that much time until it will respond.

Graphics drivers up to date?
Color quality set to 32-bit?
Tried deleting your fretsonfire.ini?

Loading pages yes. But moving up and down, no.

I would suggest you try-

(full playable release of 1.2.451 with RF-Mod)- https://www.fretsonfire.org/cgi-bin....id97231

But before using this version, I would recommend that you delete the files in Start > Run > %appdata%/fretsonfire/
As they could cause you problems,

And do this-
Graphics drivers up to date? If not, update them.
Color quality set to 32-bit? If not, set it to 32bit.

ok, I'm downloading RF-Mod now..
I have deleted the files in %appdata%/fretsonfire/.
My color quality has already been set to 32bit.
I have one question, though..
How would I check if my graphics drivers are up to date?



EDIT:
ok, So I just tried FoF with RF-Mod, and, as always, it lagged. But it also appeared like this: FoF

If you don't know when you last updated them (If you updated them at all), then they most likely aren't up to date.

ok, With the help of Google, I found that my graphic drivers are about 2 years old.
I can't seem to find the correct one online, though..
