JessicaJoy Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Before everyone links me to every thread about how to reduce lag, please read first. I have read and tried EVERYTHING. My ping varies from 67 then jumps to 300+ Every time I join a server, it just lags to a point I have to CTRL ALT DELETE so I can force quit the game. I have this in my autoexec right now. rate 30000 cl_cmdrate 101 cl_updaterate 101 I have also tried rate 25000cl_cmdrate 66 cl_updaterate 66 as well as rate 20000cl_cmdrate 67 cl_updaterate 67 and mixed and matched between all of them. I have reinstalled TWICE. Deleted my clientregistry.blob file Went to the steam forums and found the same thing in our forums...no help there. I have also restarted my computer a million times as well as went through and uninstalled programs I no longer need. I have installed the new updates for my video card as well as the new updates for the C++ Redistributable. Here is everything about my computer. Windows Vista Home Premium Processor: AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 6000+ 3.00 GHz Memory (RAM): 3.00 GB System Type: 32-bit Operating System I am in need of help. Please, anyone with ANY knowledge with what might be happening, please respond. If you have no idea, please don't post. Don't wait your time or my time. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enigma# Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Hmm Under the assumption you're playing under low video settings already, have you tried stopping all unncessary programs in the background (I'm not sure if that was mention so pardon me if I get it wrong)? (services incl.) Next, do you share your internet connection with someone? If yes, there *might* be a possibility of them causing choke either by downloading/uploading. This typically is not an issue unless someone is stealing all the bandwidth. Another thing (I've personally tried) is installing Steam into a different working directory. (e.g. instead of C:\program files\steam" try C:\Steam\) I'm not sure if someone has mentioned that already so forgive me if that was mentioned =( Umm finally try port-forwarding... this usually isn't the issue since most routers have nice NAT capabiltiies. My apologies if I'm not being any more of help =( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
