no they're both exactly the same: 640x480, no vsync, cant do specular or shadows, no decals, no particles, and high texture quality. I dont get it

Well.. Unless your Playing in NON Dedicated Servers. (In halo pc) they'll lag alot Believe me I know I hosted 14 People once, And I was really trying to kill the lag more then The Mc's so, Make sure it's always a Ded server when your playing Halo PC and what kind of Video card you on sounds simular to me


Iam on an intel extreme graphics card..

Yes^^^As the game is only a trial, its version 1.1 of Halo. Unlike the update 1.06 that has too much content. The more updates, the more stuff, the more lag. Halo trial just has less to load. Making it faster.

Yes. Go into your registery files, and change Halo pc version to version 1.06. Do this after installing, and you can play without updating
