Can't play it with nvidia

Hi folks,
I bought the game (cities:skylines) 3 days ago.Since then i'm looking for solutions,and did all the things that may be solution according to what i read from internet.
My exact problem is,i can choose Nvidia as dedicated GPU from control panel (even though it shows Nvidia as dedicated,i receive a short -not responding- at the top when i'm switching.But after that Nvidia lasts there as dedicated) And i suppose game is running on Intel graphic card insistly.
Then when everytime i open the game it lags and lags.And i think my system is good enough to play it fluently.
laptop is: MSI ge60 294XTR
my specs are : intel i7-4700MQ cpu , 8GB RAM , Nvidia gtx 765m graphic card.
I reinstalled the game and both drivers,it's still same.
Any help would be appreciated
thanks in advance

Nvidia sometimes sets games to use the intel chip by default.  You have to go into the Nvidia control panel.  Under manage 3d settings, choose program settings.  Find the game (you may have to add it), and then change the CUDA - GPUs setting to the Nvidia card.  That should fix it in most cases.

    Can you play Diablo with the PC disk or is there a separate disk just for Mac?

    Hi DJNIKKo,
    I have the Diablo III install DVD - it's both Mac & PC install.
    But warning - many players (on a PC board) dislike the game & stopped playing it already...
    I played thru all the chars on 'normal' and started playing the 2nd difficulty, but running away (=being chased) by enemies is NOT my style of playing a game...
    Check some youTube videos & see if that's what you want to do...
    The ratio of hit points (HP) for enemies is:
    1. normal - 20 HP
    2.nightmare - 6000 HP
    3.**** - 150 000 HP
    4.inferno - 1 000 000 HP
    This is for the same enemy...
    (I have the Diablo 3 walkthru guide).
    So this game is't for me...

    Look at:
    http://www.xbitlabs.com/news/video/display/20030718155730.html
    http://www.anandtech.com/#20106
    What should we think about this....I really like Nvidia and was planing to build a new one using FX 5900 128MB.
    My future unbuilt system:
    * Chieftec Miditower ATX 360W 4 x 5,25",2/4 x 3,5" Silver
    * MSI 865PE Neo2-FIS2R   (MS-6728) + BIOS 1.3(2003-6-26 )

    * MSI FX5900-TD128(MS-8929) with nvidia driver 44.03
      or Sapphire Radeon 9800 Atlantis PRO 128MB with driver 3.5
    * MS Windows XP Home Edition
    * Logitech Cordless Navigator trådlöst tb & mouse
    What should I buy, Sapphire or MSI regarding the grafic card?
    Any other suggestions or tips regarding my choice of components?
    I want to be able to play HL2 and other games with nice performance.
    Regards

    It's been posted here a page or two back, so if you must play HL2 now, I would consider the other alternative. It doesn't look good at the moment for nVidia but who's to say what will happen.

  • Can't Play DVD (with VLC, Totem, Xine, MPlayer), But Works in Windows

    I have a DVD that I can't play for the life of me in Arch. I've tried VLC, Totem, Xine, and MPlayer. And I do have libdvdcss installed. Other DVDs work fine.
    With VLC the DVD menu comes up, but when I hit play I get choppy sound and no picture. And I get these errors:
    [0x7f91f4000c18] main input error: ES_OUT_RESET_PCR called

    [0x15c0a08] libmpeg2 decoder error: invalid picture encountered
    With Totem I get the DVD menu and when I hit play it just freezes.
    With Gxine I just get a popup window that says "Media stream scrambled/encrypted" (but again I do have libdvdcss, libdvdread, and libdvdnav installed). In the terminal Gxine reports it's using libdvdcss to get the encryption keys and it appears to all go fine, but then I get the "Media stream scrambled/encrypted" popup window.
    Mplayer plays the the DVD but the image is scrambled and the sound is a little choppy.
    On the other hand, in Windows, on the same computer, the DVD plays fine with an older version of VLC (0.8.6d) and with Media Player Classic with the K-Lite Codec Pack.
    I'm especially baffled that VLC does it in Windows, but not in Arch (nor in Debian).
    Any thoughts? Thanks.

    That's interesting. I didn't realize it was all css. But how does that explain in this case the DVD did work with free players in Windows. As I said, both with Media Player Classic with the K-Lite codec pack and with an older version of VLC (0.8.6d)? Thanks.
    That is very possible. All those players use (or can use) direct show. As soon as you have the needed filter installed by SOME software all those players will be able to make use of it. And i think Vista even had dvd filters pre-installed.
    Btw. One of the more common protections on dvds is called arcos and is developed by Sony. Google for it

  • How can I play along with a MIDI sequence in Mainstage?

    Hi folks,
    I have some live performances where I would like to play along with MIDI sequences.  I've been using Mainstage and software instruments, but can't for the life of me figure out how do play along with MIDI sequences.  There's a nice plugin (whose name escapes me at the moment) that lets you play along with looped audio tracks....but a MIDI file would be better for my purposes.  Is there a way to do this?
    Thanks in advance,
    -Mike Kaplan

    Hi
    Not directly within Mainstage.... there could be workarounds using 3rd party applications slaved to MS, but it would be a complete pita (compared to working with scripts to iTunes Playlists or just bouncing the MIDI files to audio).

  • Clementine can't play files with special characters

    I saw Clementine can't play some mp3 files - it would just say "error loading file".
    So I opened an mp3 from the terminal and found out that the problem was the characters in the file name.
    For example, it wouldn't play "Schiller - Tired (mit Jaël).mp3" but works fine with "Schiller - Tired (mit Jael)"
    Any ideas why?

  • Can't play video with Extreme from NAS. Help.

  • Can not play podcast with voice control command

    Is there any way to play a podcast with voice commands? I've been trying everything, "Play podcast Science Friday", "Play NPR Science Friday", "Play This American Life". I'm pretty sure Apple left this feature out. I thought they would have fixed it by iOS4. It's nice they added, "What time is it?" but I think this would be more useful. While I'm driving, sometimes I like to listen to music, sometimes I like to listen to podcasts.
    I'm surprised more people haven't complained about this. Can we please elevate this to a bug/feature request?
    Thanks

    I've always had this problem, where "play" and "pause" does not work with podcasts through voice commands, which is rather dangerous when I'm driving and have to fumble with the touchscreen while using an A2DP headset. I don't usually have any music loaded, since I prefer listening to podcasts, Pandora or FM radio. Yesterday, I synced ONE song onto my iPhone, and suddenly it works with podcasts. I then removed it and it stopped working again. Apparently, if there is no music iPhone thinks that there is nothing to play, even if there are podcasts, which is a pretty stupid BUG. I still have not been able to play artists or titles, but now I can say "play playlist <list-name>" or "play" to resume a podcast that is paused.
    Of course, no matter what I say, half the time it dials a random number from my contacts!

  • Can't play m4a with moc anymore

    Hi
    since last upgrade I found out that I can't play m4a in my favourite player moc. It says that 'No audio stream in file'.
    Does anyone know what is the problem? I can't find any mention of this, so maybe just my set up
    I have faad2, and ffmpeg etc. installed.
    Thanks for help!

    I guess I am a pragmatist and yes, I did all sorts of things and my system is up to date. 
    Sometimes a person just has to do what works in the meantime. I agree with you and I admitted it is a "dirty" trick but without a fix by other means, it works for now.  I doubt if my particular hack is going to do any damage, since the symlinks refer to now deprecated file references.  Is it generally bad practice?  Yes, but so is putting pepper in a leaky radiator, but if you are stuck somewhere, it does plug a small hole for a bit and can get you to where you need to be.  Those links can later be removed.
    I did just file this however:
    http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/14713
    I think some packages are still seeking the old linked files which are removed by the latest faad2.  Oddly, I have a new install on a system and it works fine so I am not sure what the issue is or why a full upgrade on an "older" install didn't fix it.

  • Can you play music with the laptop closed?

    Is there a way play music with the Laptop closed? I have a MacBook Pro w/Retina display.

    You'll either need to have a keyboard and monitor attached so you can wake the computer with the screen closed or use one of the third-party utilities that keeps the MBP from sleeping when you close the lid such as InsomniaX.

  • Can't play game with multiple CD's in Classic

    I am running OS 10.4 on my iBook G4 (one that cannot run OS9 native).
    I successfully installed and played for about an hour a game called "Obsidian" (1996). About an hour into the game, I was asked to "Please insert Disc 2." However, Disc 1 was not automatically ejected, and manually pressing the eject button also did nothing.
    I have heard that some OS9 applications do not run in Classic very well, especially those expected to interact with the hardware (like the disc drive). And this problem is posted to the support page here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TA22250 . But the only solution listed is starting up in OS9, which I can't do on my iBook.
    Is there ANY way to get this to work? The game is old, mostly before copywrite protection, and I have had success getting the data from other old games' CDs onto my computer, but they still look for the information in the disc drive.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Hello Dr. Ace,
    I would start by checking the Extensions Manager to see if you have the proper CD/media extensions enabled. Also, if you could access the CD from the Mac OS X desktop and drag it to the trash to eject it by using Exposé or using control-click/eject or Right Click/eject to get it ejected.
    There may be some preferences you need to apply for this game or special set up settings that need to be altered.
    good luck!

  • ATV 2, bought in Germany(!), can't play PAL with 25 fps ?

    I still can't believe it, but when i search the forums, it seems that the black ATV is not able to play my PAL recordings smoothly.
    Actually my new little black box is switching my Samsung Plasma to 720p@60Hz.
    But with this setting it's impossible to watch a 25fps movie!
    I am not an engineer but i think those at Apple who are developing should know about the differences between PAL and NTSC.
    I still have a little hope that this it's me who does not know how to read the manuals and setup his home cinema correctly. But the more i read about this issue the more i'm afraid that Apple failed!
    What do you folks think, is there hope to get an update that will give switch the screen to ...@50hz when playing PAL content?

    I haven't tried that but i will try (but i dont think the avr does affect resolutions or frequencies).
    they can, and often do.
    I hate to say it, but most people who buy Apple stuff are fanboys who simply don't notice such shortcomings just because it's Apple and they know Apple never fails.
    are you including yourself in that insult?
    But when you show them the differences to other media players (which can be set to correct 50hz!)....
    i've had many media players.
    I think i will call Apple and look what they can do in a future update of iOS.
    good luck with that !
    My simple suggestion: make an option were i can change from 60hz to 50hz for playing own media. I have heard that the old ATV actually had such preferences....
    yes it did

  • Can't play presentation with music

    Hi:
    I have Adobe Reader X (Spanish) and latest Flash Player installed.
    In Edit - Preferences - Multimedia of Adobe Reader X, I set as default player "Adobe Flash Player" since I don't have Windows Media Player or Quick Time installed in my computer.
    I'm trying to play a PDF presentation with sound. The same presentation but without sound runs OK. Slides changes fine in auto mode.
    But when trying to play it (sound is a .mp3 audio sample) a Javascript windows appears saying "Adobe Error playing this multimedia clip".
    A friend in another computer with also Adobe reader X can play the file OK. Sound is playing fine. But he has as default player Windows Media Player.
    So maybe it's a wrog configuration of Adobe Reader or Flash Player?
    How can I solve problem?
    Best Regards
    Gustavo

    Hi Dave:
    Thanks for your reply. It's very clear. But as I understand., Adobe Reader X has the built-in (embedded copy of) Flash Player, so nothing more is needed, and if I trust the document I want to open, by clicking the document message bar, and/or setting trust options, the legacy playback should be available, Yes?
    But in my case doing the two options for trusting, javascript windows appears and presentation plays without sound.
    In properties of the PDF file I want to run, only PDF Version 1.5 appears.
    I'm just new in all these and maybe I'm asking silly things. Sorry about that.
    Regards
    Gustavo
