Yes, I'm nearly sure that it is the graphic-card. Once the ventilator of my graphiccard fall out and the computer restarted (only when playing or watching something on the computer) after 5 minutes. MAybe you have an old graphic card or you can borrow one from someone to test if you have the same problem with another graphic card.

it appears to bea cfg problem.... and i dont experience low fps, it freezes!!!
i started to use the basic cfg (the dark one) and i played with no problems, the only problem is that its a sh!tty cfg...
its really bad that due to probably directx or something we have to play wolf with low performance on a 512 mb cad with 2000 of memory ont he pc

a good cfg must be tested on assault map with full server, see how much fps you can get outside

GOOD TOPIC
i have hear this before with new graphic cards where
people have to "downgrade" the directX to be able to play RTCW.
, Please post info on your system spec and graphics to avoid etc
i know on my D.I.Y pc ( cost me £125 which includes a 128mB 9250 ATi )
runs Rtcw as good as my expensive machine.
so guys post what yor findings are as this topic is very usefull for fellow gamers

nope herme...i think video card is ok since i have same problems....well i dont have those things on the screen but if i open wolf it all goes slow and crashes after a little play...i changed something on cfg like maxfps and snaps and all got fucked up so if i play i must play at the base cfg...and also playing with that i have errors from time to time....for the moment, i wont try the downgrade thing as i wont be able to play new games...and i bought this video card for them mainly... so untill i dont solve this problems ill be off i think...

i just started the format process (backup etc) it also happends on other games not only rtcw, also its now happening on windows, not ing ames my father is convinced its a software problem, so hopefully if i fucking format it will get solved, we will see.... its a new card, well it haves some months but its just not the time to get a new one, so we will see fuck PC really, fuck them
