Shanbler: OK, great info thanks. Interested to hear you input too Cygnus.
Someone else with this spec: 2.0 pentium M, 1 gig ram, 256mb geforce 6800, said this:

Anyway here is a new .exe. http://www.greyaliengames.com/misc/frameworktest.zip (584kb)
Just unzip this to a new folder. It just has two UFOs one horizontal and one vertical. The Lag Fix is on by default. Try pressing A to switch if off and watch the movement for a while. When you first press A, it will jump a teeny bit, but should be smooth after that ...
This appears to be a 6800 problem at the moment. Let's see what others say ...

"The stuttering seems like a refresh type issue...
The enemy ships will move and occassionally, for a split second, you'll see a jump in their position. Its one of those slight things your eyes seem to notice..."
"Turned vertical sync on (its normally application controlled by default for my card) and it still has a refresh problem...I could be describing this wrong.
Don't worry about it though :)"
