    404 Not Found

    just post it here, ok?

    but for a quick check:

    check for spyware (Ad-Aware, Spybot, MS Spyware, etc.)
    check for viruses (Avast, AVG, etc.)
    close down programs that are not needed during gameplay

    Until you tell us your ram and cpu speed, we will not be able to help further.

    Yes i have same error, but if you have a router, try updating it, like updating its firmware ect.

    call your router supplier for more details or visit their site

    I think the CPU is killing you, did you OC at all?

    secondly the 6600 is like bare minimum for gaming. I have one myself, it suks in gaming. Id try upgrading al least to a 7600 gt...

    Oh, I see... that makes much more sense now.

    Just allocate more HDD as ram and add more Video from HDD through the BIOS. Scan Spyware and scan Adware... scan Virus and then you should be running a bit better...

    But don't allocate too much as it'll just slow it down.

    It also works better if you allocate it from a hard drive where the windows paging file isn't kept :)
