pc taking ages to load cod/cod2

Post by **Pedsdude** » December 16th, 2005, 6:50 pm

For some reason when I go on my brother's pc (the good pc!) and load CoD or CoD2 it doesn't appear to be loading, and then about 2 minutes later it finally loads. Any ideas why and how to fix it? It get kinda annoying when I'm in a rush to play

topher... my m8's all use wireless for online gaming... and none of them have a problem

maby its something to do with your configuration.. distance from transmitter, walls, load

Peds, i checked into it a bit more.. it could be any program like norton or sygate.. try closing any security software in the background. and let windows firewall do its stuff. + if you have a router try putting some port triggers on for CoD2

me too but it rules out the possabilty of having a router problem

I would be surprised if it had anything to do with my router - probably some program like norton etc running in the background.

I'll let you guys know if I find a solution

when you have time, scan it with spy sweeper, ad aware, or whatever AV program your brother's PC has, and defrag the hard drive(s)
