Edited by: Reven Cordelle on 13/06/2009 13:00:30 Not sure if its just me getting this - I'll be sat getting my mining on, and i'll notice that eventually I'll be getting tiny little pauses every second, almost like clockwork.
The game will only freeze for half a second, after that another second will pass and it'll freeze again. Its pretty weird. As I say, it's like a clock ticking - but with tiny freezes.
Anyone else had this?

Yup. I asked in the help channel and it was suggested to close channels with a lot of players. I tried this with no success. I'm running WinXP with a Soundblaster X-FI and 7800GTX card.
Anyone suggest any ways to fix this? |

I have had experience of this problem and it could be down to your PC running out of available RAM. If you could give your OS and Bit + RAM amount and its speed it could point to the problem.
Try turning off every background app that isn't needed. Steam Xfire MSn P2P, Antivirus VMware. ------------------------------------- Read my bio ingame for tips on how to live and not be called nasty names by me. |

running 4gigs with a decent quad core cpu. I've logged CPU use as well as memory and noticed nothing.
Anyone else have any idea's? Surely there must be more than just two of us hitting this problem?

(single) 7800GTX video card 256mb (latest drivers) Intel Core2 Quad Q9300 @ 2.5GHz P5N-T Deluxe Bios 3/12/2008 SB X-FI (latest driver) 4 gigs DDR2 800MHz WinXP SP2 (page file default system) x2 Raptor 10k RPM raid 0 configuration Network (on board)
I've tried updating video, audio, nForce drivers. Problem occurred in the last few weeks. Nothing running in the background, not even a browser.

It could very well be the raid configuration you have. Although i highly doubt it, since you have very nice hard drives. 10k.
Maybe i suggest you set the pagefile yourself on the hard drives to the number the system suggests and put both numbers as the same. |

1) Windows XP SP3 is the latest 2) Onboard Network with default driver can cause issue, not 100% sure on your Board, was under the Impression nforce is AMD Processor mostly. Depending on Driver (Nforce or realtek or intel gigasomething) you should try an updated/different driver for your network (only if its NOT nforce i think :P )
maybe some IRQ Issues that block something for a splitsecond. Maybe some Process you didnt found yet thats updating something every couple cycles (index stuff? some resident things? some background task programs?)

Upgraded to SP3. At first, I thought the problem was fixed, but it shows up given enough time. Restarting the client fixes the problem for awhile. Behavior is very much like a memory leak, where performance degrades over time.
Any other tips?

Edited by: Some Advisor on 17/06/2009 23:01:49 i basicaly need to visit your pc via teamviewer or so to judge what might be wrong :P
- directx latest version? - any programs runnign in background? maybe virus, trojans, index **** - wrong/outdated driver config, wrong settings on things yada
its hard to make a remote diagnostics withotu actualyl "knowing" the system sadly
edit: post a screenshot (link) with taskmanager open on processes sorted via alphabet, maybe we can spot something out of the ordinary
also msconfig and startup (or directly via regedit, run services) to spot odd stuff
as said.. its hard to make a guess without all the data

Little more testing produced the following.
Though it doesn't show any abnormal CPU or Memory use, FireFox when running in the background seems to cause this. I've tested several times and when closed, the lag clears.
I guess I'll be looking for another browser.
Thanks for the tips.

Edited by: Some Advisor on 18/06/2009 08:41:59 ya... noticed this aswell, but not to a big extent.
cam you tell me what plugins you run?
- adblock plus naturally, no flash blockers - omnibar, singleton, foxclocks, classic compact (+ options), downthemall, download statusbar, extended statusbar (i liked opera :P ), firegestures (because i like opera and mousegestures), fireshot, greasemonkey with some scripts, but none active on the pages iam, foxclocks, locationbar, session manager (hmm is that thing not autosaving every x cycles? ah.. every 30sec, shouldnt be the issue here)
what you got? :P

I also get this. Most annoying. At least I know I'm not the only one.

mmm.. does eve run fine after it first boots, then start skipping 10-20 minutes in? it could be heat related..
if you think it might be, pick up a can of compressed air and clean out the card, sinks and chips.
also look to clean out the whole machine, maybe remove drives cables, and cards your not using that are taking space and causing extra heat like modems, extra optical drives, backup hard drives that can be put in external encloses and only powered up when you need them. |

I had some success with changing advanced settings to interval intermediate. This seems to have bumped my FPS from about 60 to 160 and I have yet to run into anymore stuttering.

Edited by: Adamantor on 26/07/2009 20:22:40 New Thermaltake case with multiple fans. I've setup Nvidia system monitor to keep an eye on GPU temp.
I also upgraded to an 850W Thermaltake PSU to remove the change I was lacking there.
285 runs at about 49C
I've tried disabling EvE sound Also tried disabling a page file in Windows.
Anyone have any other suggestions?
