Well, the last part is subjective, really. The OS can handle the RAM just fine and the "bad program" can reanalyze the RAM in a disjointed way, or make recursive memory calls wastefully. I'm willing to bet that it's not just the fault of low RAM. However, I will consider it as a RAM issue. The problem is that the follow games have ran fine in the past for her and I: - Homeworld I/II - Warcraft III - Counterstrike - World of Warcraft - Civ III an

That's very, very interesting. So you have the problem of only your system pausing while the slower machine runs fine? Now that I think about it, I remember that occuring on my side as well. She rarely has pauses when I inquire about them. If that's the case, then the game is doing a terrible job of memory management handling. 1gig, especially with low settings, should be -plenty- for an RTS. We'll see what we can do, and additional thoughts are w
Thanks for the reply! We are patched to the latest (1.04 entrenchment) and both are legitimate copies. As a side-note, we also tried it with her computer at the lowest graphical settings possible and it still had the interval pauses. I haven't completely written off RAM being the issue, but it just doesn't add up. Even on a fresh client restart (and saved game reloaded), the interval pauses continue and without hesitation.
First time poster, recent addict to SOASE. I've enjoyed the massive single-player games and I brought over a friend to try multiplayer with. Sadly, about halfway through the game there are lag, or pauses rather, every 15-20 seconds that last 2-3 seconds. Before a long list of "your specs" occurs, I'd like to get straight to answering your questions ahead of time in hope of pinpointing the cause of this: Computer A = Mine Computer B = Hers 1. Ram: A = 4 gigs, B =1 gig</
