• Windows 7 and Warcraft 3 has delays and delays when you play the game

  Recently, about 2 days ago (Yes it literally took me 2 days to install win7 on this pc) I bought windows 7 proffesional. I have upgraded to Windows XP Professional SP3 to Windows 7. I am running windows xp, playing my Warcraft 3 (Dota) on Garena it was absolutely no lag at all! Now since I've set to upgrade to Windows 7 ive been enjoying (Yes enjoying) within 10 seconds, it seems at full speed and slow down at random. I'll lag 3 minutes approximately and don't hang for 3 seconds. like a swing. Anywase I tried searching all the patches and for the last 8 hours (Yes 8 hours, no work) and still nothing works, Ive tried to put the DWORD in registry and same GameBooster... nothing works. Ive done a Speedtest with speedtest.net and all goes well, at my local to host his 29ms and 70 to floridia.

Now my only problem is this gameplay lag. As shown on Windows XP, he was beautiful, only reason ive upgraded to windows 7 has been the annoying aspect of XP and the fact that my wireless says its compatible with windows xp, but is actually not.

• Playing old games on (or in) Windows 7

  Is anyway to play older games which worked on Windows 95, 98, in or around Wondows 7?

  Thank you!!

  It is also a broad topic to give an appropriate response. You should restrict the question down to specific games that interest you. Each game has its own problems, and where you can find a patch to make the game compatible Windows 7 is very rare (some sites like the good old games, http://www.gog.com, offer copies remastered their favorites that are compatible - but which does not apply to all games you may prefer and is not free).

• My pavilion g6 screen can't play 3D games is amd 4g ram window 8.1

  My pavilion g6 screen is fluctating when I formatted, it stop when the window is updated the exist.but problem can not now playing 3D games is amd 4g ram window 8.1

  I offer this suggestion.

  If you ask a help, it is best to register the exact model number or product number.  Probably your G6 is unable to do as you want, because it's a laptop with limited capabilities. Then, without your model number exact number/product, it is difficult to know.

  You said:

  (1) "my screen pavilion g6 is fluctating when I formatted it"... why format you the disk? ".

  (92) ' it stop when the window is updated to the existence of the problem "... what stops?
