I have been running avast now for around a year through XP and run a half decent pc.
I recently upgraded to Vista Home Premium, to which since i am getting lag in battlefield 2142. I have been on MS forum as too, 2 different bf2142 forums, with vista users no one else reports a prob. I did not ask which firewall/virus checker they used.
However I have notice a few other signs which may help to recognise this problem.
During playing any games the auto updater in avast still works and pops up when relevant, over the top of the game? How do i turn this off?
Secondly the fault happens exactly every 60 seconds, and the game flashes with newwork connection problem for around 1-2 seconds then continues as normal, although it does seem slower than that of XP.
My basics
XP64 3500 2200 mhz
3gb ram
7650gs nivdia
300gb hard drive + external (turned off)
asdl wireless etec pg845
and more…
Please please please any ideas???
