    Hey guys,

    I'm not sure if any of you are familiar with the Fraps software, but it is a video recording software, typically used for games, to record what is happening on the screen.

    I use this software for World of Warcraft. My problem is that is records good quality, but when I go to play it in media player the playback is slow and choppy. My monitors resolution is 1280x1024 and my Graphics Card is an nVidia 8800 GT. I am using the full version of fraps and have been messing around with the settings, refresh rate and fps to be exact. I believe my computer should be able record WoW at max settings and the playback should be good...

    Any ideas?

    Thanks in advance.

    When you are recording, may sure to save the file to a different HDD than your main one. Try that.
