Care to elaborate?

perhaps a reinstall could be avoided.

I had that exact same problem before. I found there was a program called "Cthelper" that was slowing down my computer like fuck. Think it's something to do with my sound card but don't really know. There's probably a bugged program slowing your comp down.

That would be the Creative tray icon helper. Unless you make frequent use of that it is probably ok to terminate the process.

If you need to reinstall, try the download version. It comes pre-patched up to like 174.

naw its trying to load your system memory is just too full cause of crappy programs running on your system tray....go to task manager .. and end all unneccessary proccesses and that should fix it.....

I happens whne you go to too many porn sites ;P

alig
29-01-04, 22:47
Yeah come to think of it, i did browse alot of porn last night so that might explain the pc turning to shit overnight :lol: j/k

try ad-aware..... ;)

and run msconfig, go to the start-up tab and see what kind of crap your pc is running without you even wanting it..

and run services.msc and disable the ones you dont need...


but that's just general pc-optimization for the die-hard nerd... uhm.. i mean gamer... :D

If you do end up having to reinstall, you can download the CDs here or at fileplanet.

yeah... works on 200x versions to..

Gives a list of all services, what they do, and if they're started or not. Some of them are started, but you dont need 'm (and are thus wasting resources).

[nm:o] i normally exit all the tray icon stuff bar winamp/msn/my modem light thingy and my connection status....but ive never had a problem with any game with the creative thing running...i used to use it instead of winamp 3 but winamp 5 > all :)

ok this update launcher is taking the piss now...a 3mb file and of my judgement wont be downloaded for at least another 15 mins..

If i go on my bro's pc and send the file over msn will it work or will that really screw things up? :confused:

Can't you get to ftp://ftp.neocron.com? It's a lot faster than using the launcher to do it.

You can dowload all the patches at full speed here: click click clik (http://www.neocron.com/patcher/index.php?PAGE=patch&LANG=eng) (which is, in fact, ftp.neocron.com yes :D)

its not a patch...its broken files :( and i need a 3mb cave file which is currently downloading now and has been for the last 10 mins and is only 1mb into it....kk need to sort this shit to

BramTops
30-01-04, 00:06
you can copy that file from another NC installation, yes.

but if your installation has broken files, i'd certainly think about doing a fresh installation... files just dont "break" that easily, either they are just not broken and nc thought they were, or there's really something wrong with your rig...

Dont know wot it is....but i restored my pc back to the future...so im still left with the neocron not responding shit but i just found the other half of my nc ;) so gunna do a fresh install [which i still shouldnt have to do to fix countless problems, bleh]

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH someone has the same problem I did afew weeks ago! ANd everyone suggested oooh its this and its that.

Turns out my motherboard reduces the activity of my programs when it is over heating..

Check your fan inside your computer, the fan on my heat sync had stopped, causing my computer to slow down programs or stop them working to remain cool.

Fixed mine in 10 minutes then everything was fine and dandy:angel:

If you use a firewall that identifies the programs connected to the net, it may now be rejecting client.exe because it's changed since the patch. Just an idea as if it does block it then NC will never load and hang before you get to the server screen.
