very weird lag
for the past 2 days, I have been experiencing weird lag. Everything would freeze for a few seconds, sometimes up to a minute+, then I would see everything that happened while "frozen" in the span of a few seconds. This only happens in GvG, HA, or Obs mode.
Uploading files is fine - my speed stays constant during the entire transfer.
Downloading files is fine - my speed stays constant during the entire transfer.
Uploading/downloading files WHILE obsing/PvPing is also fine - the transfer rates stay the same, while GW may lag, or it may not.
Surfing the net - fine, no slowdowns noticed.
Email - fine, no slowdowns noticed.
No, I was not uploading/downloading files while pvping/obsing - I did that after just to test. No, I haven't changed any settings in the game, or windows, or my connection, or...anything else really (vid/sound drivers).
The only thing I did (after this problem appeared, in order to try and fix it) was insert Factions Disc 1, repair my installation, follow the instructions (ie, insert disc 2), and then just normally login to the game.
Has anyone experienced the same problem? Does anyone have an idea of how to fix it?
EDIT: Forgot specs, didn't think it mattered, but here they are:
Radeon 9600XT
intel 2.4c
512 ram
WinXP SP2
