Can't imagine it being disabled in the first place so don't get your hopes up but you can find it by entering your BIOS and changing it within there. If you don't know how to do this you'll have to read up on it...

According to a source, IOI is working on a patch to be released sometime soon after the US release date of Blood Money.

Fastwrites did it for me. Remember ATI users, you have to allow fastwrites in the ATI control panel also.

Performance prob here to, sometimes i get 20 fps soetimes 5.. I have an 6600GT and an AMD 64 3800, 1 gig ram . Should be enough. I hope there comes a patch for this because im not buying this game when i have this shitty performance.

Okay, I think I got it (at least for my machine AMD 64 3700+, 1 Gig Ram, ATI Radeon Xpress 200 onboard video) with these settings

Adding a few short movies that I took with Fraps, looks like I licked this problem, at least for me.

I think a major part of it has to do with Pixel and Vertex shaders as Eidos states this game requires 2.0 for both. Had a Radeon 9250 installed (PCI) but it only has 1.1 Pixel and 1.4 Vertex shader support.

OK well I seem to have fixed my problem I dont know if it will work for you guys but here it goes. I changed my AGP aperature size for 64 to 128 and it seemed to have boosted the shit out of my game.


PS: The game engine is sensitive to overclocking so set it all back to defaults EVERYTHING! Works.

Interesting you say you need to enable it in ATI Control Panel. I don't have it installed anymore so I can't fupping check! But I do rememer from previous fiddling that it didn't seem to save any settings I put in that page although I do also fainly remember fastwrites being enabled (my bone of contention was with the AGP setting).

Anyway I think this is not hardware or driver related - it is software related, and more specifically... Hitman related. Something is WRONG with a capital W, R, O, N and G.

It's definitely the shader 2.0 shit. Will be most likely fixed in a patch after the retail date, guess we just have to be patient Smile

"The problem is that many motherboards don't support fastwrites... I have an Athlon XP 3200+ Processor and that don't support FW.. only my 7800GS does.

So it's a big problem for those who don't have the FW option in bios, even if 7800GS fastwrite is enabled on the card it's not enough too solve the problem."


Okay what is the word on this? Maybe this is why Fastwrites only works for some of us and not all?

Okay just reinstalled the latest Catalyst drivers;



and this is what happens when I put slider all the way to 8xSpeed (it is set to AUTO in bios and won't let me change it).

No it's AGP, unless I'm one of the few people in the world who's managed to get a pci card to work in an AGP slot Very Happy

My system is Sempron 2600+ with latest v6.5 beta driver,In the SMARTGART Options the Fast Writes is grayed and is also Off. What's the problem and how can I enable the these options?
The AGP speed is at 8x and the fast read is also off in the ATI control pannel. I also can't enable these options.I tried Retest it doesnt do anything...
I'm sure that the AGP fast write option is set to auto detect in my BIOS settings.
Any ideas to enable these options?

Thanks,
