    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hello!

    It seems that your graphics card is broken...
    You have this problem on other games also or only with World of Warcraft?

    But it could also be an overheating problem. Have you tried to clean the laptop using a jet of compressed air? This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans.

    In the worst cases, you should contact an ASP. Technicians can check your laptop and share the graphics card if it of necessary.

    Good bye

  • I play world of warcraft and use a program called ventrilo to talk with other players. the problem I have is my game sounds can be heard

    I play world of warcraft and use a program called ventrilo to talk with other players. the problem I have is my game sounds can be heard.
    Vista makes my headphones 'speakers', so when I use a program called ventrilo to talk with other players in my game sounds are heard through ventrilo. My headset is a headset/microphone generic plug-and-play.

    When I run not WoW, I can hear my own voice through the headset speakers when I talk.

    I want my headphones to work so I can hear my friends talking and the sounds of the game, but I don't want the game sounds to be filtered on the server for voice chat

    Any help would be much appreciated. I asked the same question to Geek Squad and their response has been to try to charge me $49.99 + tax for one of their "agents" can remote in and fix it. Do not use them unless you have: P

    Hey CassiusVa,

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers Forum!

    Since when are you facing the issue?

    Can I know the version of Ventrilo you use on your computer?

    It may be that World of Warcraft focuses on your audio hardware.  You can try to reduce the audio settings in WoW to see if this makes the use of Ventrilo better.  It may also be a driver problem.  I would check to make sure that you have the latest drivers for your audio device.

    Use the following steps to ensure that the audio drivers are up to date.

    1. connect to the Internet.

    2. click on start and enter the Device Manager in the start search field.

    3. click on the plus sign next to sound, video and game controllers.

    4. right click on the name of the sound material and select software update of the driver...

    5. click on search automatically for a driver updated and wait for Windows to update the driver software.

    6 Windows checks a remote Web site to see if the update of the driver software is available.

    * If an update is available, let Windows install the update.

    * If an update is not available, proceed to the next step.

    7. once the update is successfully installed, test the microphone.

    Please follow the steps below and check if you still have questions echo.

    Go into Ventrilo Setup and select mixer for the sound card, which will be the audio input (as determined by the "Input device" option) device. This will populate the Mux and line options. Normally it would take only a Mux. It is possible that you may have many options of the line. Go ahead and select "Microphone" or anything that is appropriate for the input line and then click OK.

    This should solve the problem.

    Please note that you select mixer, mux and line will allow the "Hardware Volume" slider This gives you the control hardware on the audio input signal and is the best way to control how strong you are. Setting the cursor to halfway better seems to work for most people, but it will be hardware and system load.

    You can also browse the links for more information on ventrilo and try to contact them if the problem persists.

  • Problems with Vista + Ventrilo, World of WarCraft Sound issues

    Hi and Hello, I'm a greedy player world of Warcraft I also do a lot of WoW RAID... It is a Must to use Ventrilo here is the problem

    OK when I Ventrilo and headphones connected and when I have World of Warcraft upward and when people start talkin they burst, break and stutter, but when I reduce Wow I can hear them perfectly 100% but when wow is up she usually bad breeze takes several seconds b4, I can actually what they're tryin to say... people tell me it's Vista others tell me that it's a software problem or hardware, I'm so lost and how the hell do I fix this so I can hear everything and all without any interference or decompose?

    Well, this can be caused by more than one thing.  It may be that World of Warcraft focuses on your audio hardware.  You can try to reduce the audio settings in WoW to see if this makes the use of Ventrilo better.  It may also be a driver problem.  I would check to make sure that you have the latest drivers for your audio device.  What kind of material is in the coffeemaker you all this running on?  If it is not powerful enough you can often get audio glitches.  WoW itself could have priority on the processor, so that other tasks get less time CPU.  When you reduce WoW, is no longer a priority that is why you can hear everyone Ok.  Usually if your audio hardware is powerful enough or your processor is fast enough, you can do both.

  • Is it smart to play games like World of Warcraft on a macbook pro 13'

    Hello

    I'm new to this forum, because I just bought a Macbook Pro 13' of 2015. I used to play games on a computer with windows laptop, but I bought a Macbook Pro for my work and study. I want to play games, but only if its not harmful for my Macbook. I tried to play WoW and he did work properly but the thing is that the fans inside the macbook has started to blow very hard. And the macbook started to warm up, I don't really know if it's a good thing...

    The question is: is it smart to play games like World of Warcraft on macbook pro 13' (2015)

    I really hope that there is someone in the same situation as me, and he can tell me his opinion on this subject.

  • Satellite P70-A01C in World of Warcraft frame rate is LOW

    Bought this laptop a few months as a game machine.

    Said he would go to more recent games with little drama, but I have problems with World of Warcraft. Even with a quad core processor, 16 GB of RAM and a 4 GB graphics card I sometimes 9-12 fps.

    This is usually when there is a lot of things, like during a raid, but, nevertheless, with these specs this computer must be able to manage. Normally I get around 80-90fps and I get similar on my desktop PC (quad core, 8 GB RAM, 2 GB graphics card).

    Suggestions as to how I might solve this problem?
    I always have the latest NVIDIA drivers installed and keep all the rest as well up-to-date.
    I wonder if I missed something!

    Thank you.

    + * Graphic * nVIDIA GeForce GT M 745 4 GB with Optimus and Intel® HD 4600 graphics card +.

    NVidia Optimus technology passes between the external graphics chip (nVidia) and including graphic internal to the CPU (Intel® HD Graphics 4600) in order to save power.

    In my opinion the slow pace could be related to the graphics chip that is used by this game. Maybe the game uses the graphics card Intel HD instead of GPU nVidia?

    I think you should visit the site Web of World Of Warcraft and need to check the hardware requirements.

    I think you should be able to play this game but I can't say anything about performance.

    As I said above; You should investigate some World Of Warcraft forums to learn more and read the threads posted by others who have played this game using different hardware configurations.

  • Graphics problems in World of Warcraft on Satellite P200-123

    I bought a Satellite P200-123 to surf the net, play and for general use. I have read many reviews and chose the p200-123 because of his good grades. I play wow on a daily basis. World of Warcraft was an extension called burning crusade that came out a couple of years. When the expansion of BC the grx will all mess. Its as if there is a new effect of grx etc which does not agree with the toshiba range drivers. I get lots of polygons on the screen after being in the Burning Crusade expansion. I thought the grx was defective, so I exchanged it. Once again when I get the new laptop at home it happened again. It is a driver problem that it happens to the expansion of the BC. Ive tested it on other games and everything works fine. I want to know is we're going to have a bad selection of drviers or will they get updated.

    http://I219.Photobucket.com/albums/cc215/maltonbranch/WoWScrnShot_033108_213654.jpg

    To solve this problem, I have to change the resolution, then back to the setting I use. problems with polygons etc seems to leave for 5 minutes then the pips apear. I thought he could heat or a damaged GPU. But getting a laptop brand new just to do it again shows me his non-defective material and a driver problem.

    Ive posted this on world of warcraft forums and aparantly its a problem with the ATI driver toshiba shut down. Bottom line, I want to know if the drivers will be updated and not just old ATI modded those of toshiba. I feel ripped off the coast. In all my years of owning PCs and laptops, I never felt so disappointed by a company in terms of software support.

    Hello

    I understand you completely, especially when you play with a few new engine that requires pilots who work quite at 100%.

    Maybe you should check some 3rd third-party drivers.

    This driver have been adjusted for mobile systems, so when you try these, your problem should go away and performance are expected to increase a little.

  • HP Split x 2, can I play video games such as the sims 3 or world of warcraft?

    I recently bought this divided Hp x 2 for academic purposes, but my husband wanted to play world of Warcraft in my laptop. usually the screen feels so hot after that he played for at least 3 hours. I don't want him messing my laptop. Sometimes, the game freezes.

    I wanted to know if games like WOW or sims 3 can be played regularly in this type of laptop. I wanted to know if there is anyway I can upgrade this laptop to run to its full potential.

    Thank you!

    Hello mariegarrard,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    This computer is not designed to handle such heavy games such as WOW and Sims 3. Even if you were to spend a few thousand dollars and any compatible hardware upgrade, it still would not work properly.

    Please let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you!

  • Upgrading HP a6123w for expansion of World of Warcraft

    Hello all-

    I currently run a HPa a6123w

    http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c01070884

    The upgrade only that I did is to put a pretty weak NVidia 8400gs graphic card in it... I just went to Best Buy and bought one in the range of $ 50 million.

    I am a player of World of Warcraft, and recently in anticipation of the new expansion, they have improved their graphics. I see now quite poor performance with the graphics settings turned far enough down. I have to go on settings low to shoot about 30 pictures per second.

    Looking around updates of questions on this forum, I see a new power supply and graphics card in my future.

    I know I should up my diet through at least 500w or so with a quality brand PSU.

    I also know that I have to update my graphics card.  I'm looking to either an ATI 4850, 5670 or 5770.  Or the Nvidia gtx 460.

    I'm looking for my best option "bang for buck".  I really only play WoW on my PC, which I know is not a graphics card heavy game of cards.  I also know that I am a bottleneck with my processor speed, and I am running Windows Vista 32-bit Home.

    I wonder what's my best option for graphics card for the next WoW expansion and also if it's worth updating my processors and advancing toward a 64-bit Windows 7 as operating system.  Or I'd better save this money for the new system altoghether. I know I'm a little behind on my computer, but one that want a bit better game WoW experience, I have not had problems with this computer.

    I wonder also if just the upgrade of a Nvidia 240GT, it will be enough of an upgrade without having to change power supply and other components as I really only play a game on my PC.

    Thanks in advance for any help and response (s).

    You can put a lot of money on upgrades or just buy a new PC.  Your PC is 3.5 years, so you have to consider the cost to the verses of the age of the PC upgrades and a 3.5 year old motherboard.

    $70-100 power supply

    $150-200 video card

    Upgrade processor $150-250

    $100 memory

    W7 64-bit $99

    If you decide to go the way of upgrade and then go with a power supply 550 watt dual PCI-E power connectors 6 and then buy the NVIDIA GT 460 with 256 memory interface.  You can always move this material to another PC, IE the motherboard on your PC goes wrong.

  • World of Warcraft won't patch...

    Hello. Yesterday, I bought a new PC with Windows 7. This evening I installed World of Warcraft and its two expansion packs.

    However, when I try to start it and the patch, the Downloader is stuck at 10% and goes no further.

    The Warcraft folder is in the Public folder (on the users folder).

    I made sure the Downloader is not blocked by my firewall and I'm at a loss to understand what the problem is now.

    Help, please

    You might have more luck looking at the forums of Blizzard's Support for that... but I'll give it a shot.

    Are the ports for the game open [check out their site for this... can't quite recall what they are]? You also unlock for the program WoW itself? Hmmm

    Have you tried to just manually download patches? Because when from this first CD, the download can take quite a long time...

  • World of Warcraft modules works only with Windows 7

    My computer is HP Pavilion and new. There is no windows 7 when I bought it and I just download windows 7. Prior to Windows 7, I downloaded the game had no problem. I look around for more information on how to solve the problem, I find that I am more confused. I talked to HP and they were no help and offered to pay one of their people to solve my problem, although I still have a 2-year warranty left. I find instructions provided in most of the cases are intended for people with great knowledge in computer science. Most of the people who hold them are not the well informed! I contacted Blizzard and they are not aware of any problems at the moment.

    On the game World of Warcraft, I can't use files Add on, after I downloaded windows 7 on my Vista 64 computer. I have another computer and addons are working very well. They appear to be locked or not accessible. How can I fix it.

    Hi Dennis424,

    Welcome to the Microsoft answers site.

    ·         What happens when you try to use the add-on?

    This could be a problem if the corrupt modules are installed on the computer, I suggest you uninstall the Add-ons on the computer and reinstall the Add-ons and check.

    If the problem persists, then I suggest that you uninstall the game World of Warcraft and perform the new installation of the game and check.
