I had performance troubles with MP even though I had a high end machine (1.33GHz Athlon, Geforce 3, 512MB RAM...) Then my friend mentioned that Max Payne has been optimized for detonator 12.41 drivers so off I went to hunt for these drivers. They really helped with the frame rate problem. Max started running smoothly again. I recommend to try these drivers if you guys have problems running the game smoothly.

There's been two official releases since the Detonator 3 drivers. Both have caused problems for me with Max Payne and MaxEd. Max Payne never crashed before I installed the newer drivers. Soon, games will be coming out that need the newest drivers. When they do, it's bye bye Max Payne.
The problems with the new drivers came to light a long time ago, and nothing has been done to Remedy it.
