So recently I changed from Xp to Vista and when I tried to play pawn again it was terrible.
Like Id be lagging really terrible but everything was fine with the connection or fps.
It was more like I was mini teleporting O_o
Am I missing out something?
Edit: Tried different browser, refreshing, rebooting, cache.

Why you get a computer with a GeForce 9000
You will not lag. Ever.

1. Why did you switch from XP to vista in the first place?

ITT: People with bad computers blame their OS.
Vista's system requirements are much higher than Xp's, so your comp lags more if its not powerfull enough for it.
see for yourself:
Xp's minimal requirements (http://home.comcast.net/~SupportCD/XPRequirements.html)
Vista's (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/919183)

perfectly put. I run 32 bit vista and pawn runs fine.
if anything try using an Ethernet instead of wifi (if you use wifi) upgrading ram + video card if possible. those are really only things that would be caused from that switch.

I have the same problem with my laptop and I came to conclusion that
I didn't have enough ram to run pawn on Vista.
Lol.
Sad, I know. How much ram do you have ? I really doubt that is your problem even though your pc was slow as fauk when we used TeamViewer.
Lag as in you can't kill or lag as in the keys stick and it respondes slow or
lag as in the sound is off?
IrConfoozed.

Basically nkk2 you can almost install xp onto a 2x4.
Also, why would you downgrade for xp to vista?

macs are beast for pg but on pt it almost makes it worse...
they stupidest thing is when i use my mac it laggs more on small screen then large. it even works better with smoke turned on 0.0
reverse lag lol i run at 4-0 fps acording to the little icon on the botom but in the game its works like it has 25 or so
ms maintains 80-150
