Solve : preventing a 60 minute time out!? |
|
Answer» ok so heres what gets me, everytime i play an online GAME, i have 60 minutes before it causes me to log out for no reason! so i have to log BACK in and play but then after another 60 minutes it does the same thing! how do i PREVENT the 60 minute time out?Buy it. Quote Buy it. no it happens on all games. even bought ones. its a computer problem not the game problem.Is it as regular as clockwork? What computer make/model, processor, RAM, power SUPPLY, graphics card, sound card, game involved, etc. It is only this one game?it's pretty much every game i play. I have 60 minutes of gameplay from the time i log in. I have a Cable Modem connection. and an E-Machine (i know they suck but it works pretty good). Maybe theres some setting on my computer, ive tried everything but so far i cant find out why.What if you're not gaming at all, just surfing the net, playing Solitaire, whatever? If gaming only it may be a heat problem. What games, how demanding and what is your hardware setup? Are these games run from the CD?Could it be that your router is kicking you out? Try logging on to it and look for a setting a la "DHCP lease time". From http://www.comptechdoc.org/independent/networking/guide/netdhcp.html - DHCP Lease Renewal After 50% of the lease time has passed, the client will attempt to renew the lease with the original DHCP server that it obtained the lease from using a DHCPREQUEST message. Any time the client boots and the lease is 50% or more passed, the client will attempt to renew the lease. At 87.5% of the lease completion, the client will attempt to contact any DHCP server for a new lease. If the lease expires, the client will send a request as in the initial boot when the client had no IP address. If this fails, the client TCP/IP stack will cease functioning.The games I know that kick out every 60 minutes are Ragnarok, Knight Online, and Ultima Online. Doubt it is a heat problem, I just think there is some significance to the 60 minute time out. the DHPC didn't WORK. I don't play solitare so I wouldn't know.OK, i figured out what the problem was, the only problem now is solving it. It seems to be a watchdog timeout error. It is caused by SNA Server Keepalives on Idle LAN Connections. The only problem is, how do I set it to not start over every 60 minutes? |
