how do i increase fps?




hi, i have been having fps problems for quite sometime. I recently install cod4, playing online ofcourse, i get around 80-125 fps ingame for about 1min, then it just drops down to 20-40 and stays that way. I am pretty sure my pc can handle the game quite well, but i think i have to tweak some settings?
