Hi,

I've been having a problem with fiesta. In the past couple of days it's been hanging quite a bit on the loading screens. When this happens, I check the processes tab and it displays fiesta.bin as using 300,000-500,000k+ memory usage and 60-70% CPU usage. Is it normal for fiesta.bin to use this much?

I've tried restarting, reinstalling, checking for the latest drivers for all components, freeing up space on the HDD and freeing up RAM via TweakXP but to no avail.

Here are my specs for those who are interested;

Intel P4 3GHZ
Radeon X800XT
1 GB DDR2 RAM
DX 9.0c

Any fix to this issue would be appreciated.

Cheers,
BURN_BABY

ill assume your using a default XP install typically allocates 256mb of ram to the OS

Fiesta uses 512 at any given time.

256+512 = 768

1gig = 1024

768/1024 = .75

.75 * 100 = 75 aka 75% of Ram is being used.
