My I just gave my free trial to a friend, and he says every 1-3 minutes its freezeing up. Can anyone help me figure this out so he can play? thanks . here is his specs

2.6Ghz P4
512MBRAM
80GB HDD
Dial up at 28.8(i know its not this cause mines slower and it works).

Thanks

WhaT 28.8k dialup, man i though i had it bad when i had 56k, thats the problem

[dscytherulez]

Indeed. There is no internet less than 28.8k readily available anymore lol, so I HIGHLY doubt you have less. The internet is definately the problem.

[NoSurrender]

internet for sure

[cloudj110589]

it is 56k but it is running at a connection of 28.8kbps. this is the error message that comes up "microsoft windows detected and recovered from a device failure. Please save your work and reboot to restore frll functionality"

that helps a bit more, that means one of two things i think, he either has a driver problem or some hardware is malfunctioning, I would first download new drivers for his chipset, vidcard, soundcard, and modem. Then if that doesn't help i can't realy say what too do other than if it was bought from a place(not Built yourself) tell them and see what they can do

make sure you have hyperthreading disabled. planetside does not support it.

also check your swap files

[SilverLord]

Swap files?

[Rbstr]

AHAHAHA not again, 3 days in a row ok i'll go find it again


for XP home, and most others) Go to the control planel --> system --> advanced --> performance settings --> advanced --> vitual memory change -- > custom size --> set the max and min the same to the same size, mine is 2gb, and there you go

[lapaz]

how do you disable hyperthreading?

[martyr]

that's a bios option, probably somewhere under advanced chipset management or something of the like.

[Daleon]

You left out what video card the guy has. Its more than likely a driver problem or something with it.

[cloudj110589]

thanks yall i fixed it it was a driver problem

[Ait'al]

Does hyperthreading disable proccessor commands or something.
