LCM90 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 I'm posting this for my 9-year-old son who loves RuneScape. He occasionally has a problem where his character will become more and more unresponsive, i.e., he'll click on a location to walk to, and his character will take a long time (5-10 seconds) before he starts walking. Any suggestions? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_emflum Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 It is most likely due to lag ( when the computer acts slowly and becomes unresponsive) a couple options are to close all other programs. do a virus scan and adware scan and remove all unwated files edit: you could also try to resart your computer if it has been running for a long period of time PRIVATE CHAT ON My BlogDragon Drops:2 Chains, 4 Meds, 1 2H, 2 Left Halves, 2 Legs, 1 SkirtRate My Bank!

Loge_05 Posted June 2, 2006 Share Posted June 2, 2006 Sounds like your computer may be lagging. Read. You might also want to try posting in Tech & Computers - You'll get a more acurate answer there. Offline and unavailable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCM90 Posted June 2, 2006 Author Share Posted June 2, 2006 Hmmm. That's a PC-specific forum. I don't think the platform is the issue. Here are the specs for my son's PC: Intel Pentium 4, 2.0 GHz Windows XP Pro SP2 Intel 82850 Chipset Intel 82801BA (ICH2) Ultra ATA Controller 512MB PC800 RDRAM,8100 128MB ATI Radeon 9600 Pro ATI Catalyst Windows XP 4.11 video driver DirectX 9.0c Sound Blaster Audigy2 ZS FYI, my son feels the lag problem started two days ago when the player housing option was introduced. Also, he notices a performance problem when he's near the portal that takes him to his new house. Sounds like your computer may be lagging. Read.
