Solve : Wireless Network Connection Fails & Fan Runs Fast? |
|
Answer» I'm running into a strange problem: I'm using a NEW-to-me refurbished computer. It is a HP Compaq with Windows XP Pro and SP3. The computer works great! No problems except when I try to play LotRO (Lord of the Rings Online). The internet connection seems to remain good until I LAUNCH LotRO. I launch LotRO and other programs like Windows Media Player, Nero, etc.You are running the laptop with all of this? No wonder... ISOLATE the problem first by unloading system tasks. Have you tried connecting directly by ethernet ports or wired to check the difference? Are you using DHCP or Static Address? While connected to the internet, use command line to post your network configuration and post the result. Click Start and tick Run. Type Cmd and Enter. On command prompt type->ipconfig/all > ipconfig.txt and hit Enter again and a text file naming IPConfig will be saved. Look for the text file on windows explorer, users folder. Copy and Paste them on your next reply. Hold CTRL and hit A to highlight entire text. Right-click, choose Copy then right-click and Paste on the New topic.Using a Desktop not Laptop. Thanks Jason2074 Edit: BTW I'm not trying to run all programs at once (I think I worded it wrong in my first post) - was just trying to give examples of when I launch a program like Nero, Media Player, LotRO, etc... doesn't matter the program.
