Not enough information, such as specs, and if there is a special kind of lag.

If you are running windows could you do this for me so we know the specifications of your computer.

 

Start > run > dxdiag

 

Copy and paste everything on the "System" and "Display" page so as we have the information that we need to give you a guess as to the problem.

 

In addition to this could you also tell us these miscellaneous things: the firewall that you are using, and its settings, and the speed of your connection.

what browser are you using and how much ram do u have? if u dont know right-click "my computer" or "computer" and click properties. tell me this and i can narrow it down.

Your problem happens to be entirely hardware related. What this means is that you do not have enough ram to be playing Runescape. This is also noticeable by how large the "Page File" is, which is portions of your hard-drive being converted to be used as ram.

 

My advice would be to find out the type of ram you have and then add another stick into your computer.

 

Here is a site detailing the types of ram there are:

As for the "script error" that is entirely "Acitvex" related and only Microsoft would know what the error means.

I don't think the problem is hardware related, while adding another stick of RAM would greatly help.

 

What happens is probably something got corrupted somewhere in internet explorer, but continuing to use scripts wouldn't really change much of the way it runs, depending on the script, really is just of a hassle to have to click that box often. Swiftkit uses IE as a browser too, so that's why you get the same message when using both programs.

 

Best is to use either Firefox or Opera, you won't get that error.

 

I also recommend not using sk.

Well, after that message from Internet Explorer and Swiftkit, Runescape gones into a white box and says "Does this show a grey box?" Theres a yes and no option, I click yes, and then it takes me into Unsigned Mode inJagex and shows a list of Worlds, when I click the Worlds it goes into a white box again. Also this also shows in Firefox except the erroe box part.

Then maybe it's the cache that didn't sync well. I suggest deleting it and completely reloading RS.

 

The cache is located in the following folder:

 

On XP: C:\WINDOWS\.jagex_cache_32 (or something similar)

On Vista: C:\.jagex_cache_32

On W7: I haven't installed Windows 7 on my laptop yet.

If it's laggy, try playing on Standard Detail fixed window, with all settings to the lowest. That's what I did.

 

If it does not work, you're on your own, I can't help ya there sorry. :(

If it has issues on those settings, that's what I refer to as a crappy computer from at least 7 years ago that is in dire need of a replacement.

I was going to eat hot dogs for dinner tonight. I think I will settle for cereal.

Well, my computer is from '01 and has less RAM, graphics RAM, and CPU speed than that. Also, I can play fine on sd low specs (except during wars). Specs should not be the problem.
