Continuum Not Responding

[rootbear75]

Whenever I click on play to go into a zone, it stops responding for about a minute or 2 before finally going into the zone.

any ideas?

no, i suspect its the network

i got the laptop shortly before leaving for college, and it worked fine on my home network

Look in your Intel® Graphics controller and tell me what your refresh rate is.

 

If its not set at 75Hz Try setting it to it.

switch to classic view in control panel to make it ez to find.

You should see Intel® Extreme Graphics

click this icon you should beable to set it higher there.

like i said, im already using the highest refresh rate that im able to use

 

 

edit: and that intel thing is on your computer... not mine

wow mine can go higher then 75. How old did you say your laptop is?

[rootbear75]

uhh 3 months?

 

its probably just the graphics card you have

 

and how would the refresh rate have ANY thing to do with it not responding?

it was working fine before

Your problem seemed to be the same one I had last year. All I had to do is up my refresh rate to 75.

[rootbear75]

huh... i think sama's idea was right tho.. i think the PLoss is causing it, so ill try it later on another network

[🜲 Samapico]

I also doubt refresh rate could be the cause... Refresh rate could cause a low frame rate or something, but not much else.

Available refresh rates mostly depend of your screen. Most cards can output anything frmo 50 to 75 Hz, but usually it's the screen that doesn't support these modes

oh i found the one i posted.. My game did the samething but did it when i shut down the game.

I had to updated the processors drive. This was diff from yours sorry.

UPDATE:

 

It does it even when i am on my home network

Does this do it with all zones? one zone?

 

Also....is your resolution on Continuum consistent with the resolution on your PC ?

 

EDIT: I dont think that has anything to do with it. I would check to make sure it is consistent thought. Check the refresh rate is the same as your os also. Maybe something.

 

Is this Vista?

All zones

No, because TW doesnt allow my resolution, max in TW i think is 1280x768

I have to lower it for that... my PC res is like 1680 by 1050 or something like that

I have it set to do windowed mode, so it shouldnt be a problem...

 

Is this Vista?

yes
