I used to get this a lot on my old pc. I think most of it was from being on dial-up. If you haven't already done it, check and see if there is a new driver for your video card and like Looter suggested, turn down some of the graphic settings. Try playing with 'Poor Man' enabled and see if that helps.

The resyncs is probably your connection, at least mine were from dial-up. They stopped when I switched to cable.

 

Also, IIRC Vista itself can use upto 512mb of RAM just to run so that could be an issue there.

 

On another thought, I also play another game :lipssealed: and before I upgraded my video card my char would stop just as I went to attack something, but the mob would still move and come at me. Then all of the sudden everything would stop for just a second and then skip forward and go as normal. Is that what is happening to you? Once I upgraded my video card all that quit happening and goes smooth now.

 

And just to be sure, you checked for new driver on the ATI site and not via Vista for newer version?

 

Other than that I can't offer any other suggestions. Hopefully someone else perhaps knows more.

Hey Redskins. I get the same problem on mine. lots of resyncs and other characters still move while i am stuck to the spot. I did think it was a game problem or settings but have since found out it's my connection. I have broadband, but at peak times of the day my isp doesn't deliver a good connection and i can only think this would be worse on dial up.

Not exactly... the messages for character movements are sent in batches from the server so its possible that the client has got some of the messages before the lag and hence other characters have their commands to move, but not yours.
