Super Fast Runspeed problem - System info

    Are you referring to the chipset drivers by chance? I could not find any driver for the actual CPU. Here is the page where I found the chipset drivers but I don't see anything at all from 2005 and even the 2004 one is just for audio it seems. If you want me to try installing them I will be happy to, but would like to make sure before I start installing things.

    Thank you

    Well shucks...I could have sworn that driver supported the older revisions. As it turns out, there isn't an updated one for the XP line of CPUs or earlier.

    Is there one of those super techy ways to trick my processor and force it to run at the right speed? If this is the issue at least we have it narrowed down.

    Your duron runs at 5.3GHz? I think you have something else going on (I'm not aware of any AMD CPU, including the FX57, that is able to do those speeds without a constant supply of dry ice). :p
  6. ARCHIVED-Taldaas_Stormweaver Guest

    I know what you mean Aerendar, mine said it was running over 6ghz but I know that is unrealistic. This may be an error in Sandra, I'm not sure. Do you know another way to check what it is running at?
  7. ARCHIVED-Taldaas_Stormweaver Guest

    Sorry double post.

    CPU-z shows the correct speed.
    it does not display the model number,
    or other things i though you might be curious about.

    if it was really running at 5+GHz i would faint,
    mostly because of the puddle where the CPU used to be.
    i have made no attempt to overclock my system.
    this must be an error in the Sandra report.
  9. ARCHIVED-Taldaas_Stormweaver Guest

    Just wondering if there were any other solutions for this? I'm still having the problem.
    Thank you
  10. ARCHIVED-Taldaas_Stormweaver Guest

    I really hate to bump my own thread, but I really need an answer to this. I'm still having the problem.

    Thank you
  11. ARCHIVED-Taldaas_Stormweaver Guest

    2 weeks since I reported this including all system files. Still no updated response. At this point I am not even logging in unless my friends need me because I can't handle the 10000mph that my guys moves and the super touchy controls associated with it. Any chance of getting some kind of reply on this again?

    Taldaas_Stormweaver,

    To be honest I do not know for sure if this is the problem, but try updating your nVidia drivers to something that is WHQL certified by DirectX. In some cases if your driver is not certified it can cause problems. But usually the problems are graphics LAG and/or crashing in game. Not FASTER graphics LOL. It really does sound like a hardware problem rather than a game related issue. Just make sure that all the chipset drivers for your motherboard are up to date. Make sure that your BIOS is up to date. Make sure all other peripheral drivers are up to date (NIC card, sound card, etc.).
  14. ARCHIVED-Taldaas_Stormweaver Guest

    Well, I double checked my video drivers, bios, and chipset drivers and all are up to date. I also tried the websire that the previous poster suggested and my speed test was coming back at about 3 times what it said cable was supposed to and the tweak test said that all was running good.

    Does anyone know a program so check what speed your processor is actually running at? The only strange thing I have seen on my PC outside of EQ is that Sandra is reporting my 1.33 ghz athlon running at 6ghz. I do not overclock so I assume this is an error in Sandra, but would like to verify. If it is, perhaps EQ2 is checking processor speed the same way that program does, resulting in something like this?

    I would agree that it seems like a hardware issue considering only me and 1 other are complaining about the issue but every other game I have loaded runs perfectly. Also the problem did not occur until the day of LU13. These 2 things together lead me to believe it is something with the software rather than my hardware.

    Thank you
  15. ARCHIVED-Saiasanc Guest

    Personally, I like Everest Home Edition and CPUMark99. They both are good for getting a fairly accurate idea of your systems current configuration and Benchmarking. I am at a loss as to what is causing your problem. If you ever figure it out, I would love to know what is causing it. :)
  16. ARCHIVED-Tebos Guest

    This is what you wrote:
    I also tried the websire that the previous poster suggested and my speed test was coming back at about 3 times what it said cable was supposed to and the tweak test said that all was running good.
    You have possibly located the root cause of your issue. You need to get ahold of the ISP and tell them that dslreports.com measured your link speed to the Internet and it registered 3 times faster then what normal broadband has to offer. They need to investigate this!
  17. ARCHIVED-Taldaas_Stormweaver Guest

    So you are suggesting that I should complain because I am getting a better connection than I should to the internet? That doesn't seem to make sense to me... To give you a rough idea, it had my download at 2077 kbps and my upload at 357 kbps.
  18. ARCHIVED-Tebos Guest

    Why don't you think about it. You stated that you get 3 times the normal speed of a typical broadband connection. Does that make sense to you?
  19. ARCHIVED-Crazy eye Guest

    Taldaas, From what I can see you have a processor issue
    Processor
    Model : AMD Athlon(tm) Processor
    Speed : 6.15GHz
    A 6.1 gig processor is not available to teh avridge consumer yet, 4ish is about the gighest right now.. That appears at first glance to be an issue.

    a few questions,

    Did you or a friend build this computer you are using?

    If so what motherboard is in it?

    try going into the bios (Usually the del key during initial boot up while in the memory test) and resetting teh bios settings to default.

    try this first, if it still dosent work, look at the initial post screen (Displays memory amount, installed drives and most importantly for you the speed of the processor.) and tell me your processor speed. your current amd processoe is a thunderbird processor, this processor will display a speed of 1600ish to a max of 2400 if configured properly.

    I suspect your bios is set to auto overclock for you, this should be disabled in the default bios settings. Is your motherboard an abit, asus, gigabyte, or epox? just curious.

    Let me know

    Carl
  20. ARCHIVED-Snublefot Guest

    Do you actually move at 600% on server side too? Without getting tells from GMs every 15 minutes of play? :) (if your not moving that fast on serverside, but its only a client issue, you would be "warping" back to previous locations on regular intervals I guess)

    How do other programs perform on your computer?

    Not to be rude, but if I was doing support, and someone claimed to be running at 6x and have 3x their bought bandwidth, I would laugh and close the case... However, if its a real problem, it need to be patched somehow. Its an speed hack (++) exploit screaming for attention, and uhm, exploitation.
