November 7, 200520 yr Does anyone have any tips for how to make Runescape run faster and more efficient? I'm using a Win98 computer, with 166MHz and 128 RAM. I know it's a slow comp, so that might be the reason it's running slow, but if anyone has any tips they would be most appriciated. Thanks.
November 7, 200520 yr Sorry to break it to you but theres really not much you can do with a spec that low to improve your Runescape experience Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

November 8, 200520 yr Well when you are on f2p, when an ad comes up, right click on it, and click Play, Loop, and then zoom in a few times. This will make it run a little bit faster. I also notived that firefox also uses less system resources.. so you could try using it. Worse comes to worse buy some ram on ebay lol. .:: RSC Product ::..:: 116 Combat ::..:: 1777 Overall ::..:: Biggest Single Drop Log Ever ::.

Thanks. 166 Mhz and 128 Ram, thas your problem, 116 Mhz is donkeys years old for a processer, atm mines out of date and its at 2.6Ghz Pent 4. Get a new PC :P.
November 9, 200520 yr Don't run anything else while trying to play rs... ...or just upgrade your system :)
November 9, 200520 yr shot do not buy a new PC, build a new one. You can proably take parts from your old one to put into a new one. Mabye get some cheap little mobo that supports some 600 mhz computer and really mabye 128 megs of ram. Mabye look up your mobo and see if you can get a faster proceceser in there and mabye some more ram. But really you do not need it too much I do not think. What is your connection speed. I would not blame the computer first mabye your network speed. At the college it runs fine with 300 mhz 64 meg ram computers. (Ack what kind of college is this with those computer haha). Other things you can do with windows is shutdown all services that may be un nessecary. Do Windows Key + R and do Msconfig and look at what is booting up and what services your running if it looks like you do not need it then take it off. I would close all programs besides your Web Browser. And no matter what you will proably have lagg [bleep]es in crowaded areas nothing can help that. So look for low servers and that type of thing and avoid big time gathering areas on full servers.
November 10, 200520 yr If you don't upgrade (best solution), your options are limited. Use the RS downloadable client Run low-detail No chat programs loaded or running No browsers loaded up Try to have absolutely nothing else running at all, just the game itself That's the best I can offer in your situation.

November 23, 200520 yr maybe get broadband if you dont already? but make sure your system will accept the broadband Photos!
November 23, 200520 yr Don't bump old topics please. And broadband wont help. ==================================Retired tip.it moderator.Teaching and inspiring.
November 24, 200520 yr dude this guy has a 166Mhz comp, the thingi s probably like 16bit or 8 bit he can't even run high detail.... Buying ram for a antique like that probably costs couple hund since u have to custom order.... Nothing u can do m8, buy one of those 400 dollar emachines or dell, they can run simple Java programs like rs just fine.
