Yeah well I am having worse luck. I was getting 100fps but the graphics of the game was terrible. I changed my settings around trying to boost the graphics (my friend sent me a copy of his config file) and my fps dropped to about 50 and it looked terrible still. I tweaked my graphics settings (in Windows) and now I can't connect to a game or if I do it shows Loss and Choke. Wtf. My friend's computer is not even remotely as good as mine (and mine is not awesome). When I don't connect it gets stuck on "IN: .42kb/s" which makes no sense because I was just downloading on bit torrent at 120 kb/s-400kb/s. Here are my specs. Maybe someone can help me too

CPU: AMD 64 X2 3800+
MB: ASUS M2N-E
RAM: 3 GB DDR2 800
VC: HIS ATI X1650Pro
AC: X-Fi Xtreme Music
HDD: 2x Seagate 500Gb SATAII
Windows XP Pro

(not too shabby I thought)

now you are going to laugh but I am connected wirelessly to a Netgear cable modem/router (no one else is on) and I have a USB 2.0 SMC EZ Connect Wireless Adapter. Is that the problem?

This is what I see everytime I connect. I tested my speed and it said 2.5megabits per second

If I were you I would get a hard-wire connection going and see if that solves the problem.

Connecting to a server has nothing to do with your graphics power or configuration.

You should also revert your settings back to the normal ones and only tweak one thing at a time so you can see explicitly the effects of each.

I copied my friends config file and I did not make a copy of the original. Is there a way to revert to old settings?

Delete it. Counter-Strike should* use the built-in default automatically.

* make a backup!
