Hi all, I've been having problems with connectivity in an online game recently. I freeze up for a few seconds randomly, then go completely LD/linkdead 95% of the time. The 5% I stay on....I'm hit with an intense but short-lived lag spike which eventually leads to another...again booting me most of the time. Anyway, I was advised to update my MoBo driver. I have an eMonster 600, TriGem Computer Inc. NAPOLI 1.0. board. I guess I'm asking to be pointed in the right direction as far as which driver to get and how to do it. I may be wrong here...but last time I looked into this, I thought it involved flashing my BIOS...kinda scary stuff since I've never done it. Also, I'm open to any other suggestions on how to correct my LD problem. I've already updated my GeForce2 driver, installed a better NIC, scanned via SpyBot, Ad-Aware, Trend Micro, Bitdefender, and McAfee, plugged in a dozen different settings for my packet datarate, disabled in-game sound, and lowered graphic settings to be the least demanding as I can. Any help is appreciated and I'll say thanks in advance because you guys have been very helpful to me in the past. -Myke |

If it has worked before without the newer driver what makes you think that solves the problem? Still do a thorough spyware/virus scan. If all else fails do a test install on a spare harddisk to see if your ISP should be kicked for this. |
