Hi Redzombie

The first thing to do is fill out your system specs. Go to your forum account control panel to give us the information. Access the the CP (Control Panel) can be found at the top of this page.

You can use Speccy to help you fill out your specs. See my sig.

Hi Jon,

I had to advise a poster to use speccy only once, before. I did not have the link, so I went to your profile to use yours. Thanks for always having the information for all the members.

We want to know about ram, HD, MB, etc. Everything that you know about your computer. I know that you have the information.
You can follow Jons advice and give us the inform that you get.

Hate to say this, but your machine's specs are on the low end. You may not have adequate power to run modern games.

What is your network speed? Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test

1 GB memory, really low. You can add Ram

You can read this, do what you can. Ask as many questions as you like. You are family, now.

This will use the OS most efficiently.
I do not know if it will be enough for power hungry games.

The link that I sent you, contains free information. It just tells about things to do to your computer that will make it more effiecient. Read it and ask us if you do not understand. We are your friends.

Everything that we tell you is free.

Use the link Richard gave you earlier: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/11728-optimize-windows-7-a.html

Those are tips that won't cost you a dime.

Combat Arms' technical specs are really low, so the OP should be able to run lag free, despite the rig's limitations:

• Windows 2000 or XP
• Pentium 3, 1 GHz
• 256Mb RAM
• GeForce 2 MX or equivalent video card
• DirectX 9.0C
• 2Gb Hard Disk Space
• 128 kb/s Internet Connection

What settings are you running the game on? Do you get lag with other game's, or just this one?

 

[Redzombie22]

Hmm just Combat arms. But its Okay. I realized that my fan inside my computer was full of dust and i had to clean that up to stop the lagg. Thank u!

I am glad that you resolved the problem.
