CamP 81 Posted February 7, 2013 This could be anything from your anti-virus to your router. A lot of newer AVs utilize a new type of scan that pretty much does so in real-time which obviously could cause some issues if you're playing games. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

=DiG= Zgraphz 84 Posted June 7, 2013 This could be anything from your anti-virus to your router. A lot of newer AVs utilize a new type of scan that pretty much does so in real-time which obviously could cause some issues if you're playing games.hes right, usually anti-virus programs will have a silent mode, game mode, streaming mode etc selecting these feature lowers the bandwidth needed and cpu needed to run it's usual task. It is NOT recommended for you to turn your anti-virus off or firewall off for any reason when playing online internet games.open your start bar, type run and then in the text box type msconfig , then you can see what items are running, what items start up, and you can choose weather or not to have then enabled or disabled.Last but not least. Interference!!! wireless connections on a g type or n type run on a 2.5 ghz frequency, some cordless phones frequency run on a 2.5 ghz which screw with signal, Ovens screw with signals. and smartphones that are connected via internet to your wireless router takes a huge amount of bandwidth just being connected *just sitting doing nothing*check your task manger to see what is open and running and see if you can disable a few things, normally those are all the little weird things i've had problems with over the years with lag and video games, hope this helps Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
