Hmmm... where do you live?
It might be determined by your location vs your internet connection...

Also 180 doesnt sound all that gud =\


BTW you might wanna post such things as location, pc model, pc specs ect... I mean this is such a wide problem that can be caused by many things and if u just give the problem it will be time consuming for someone to analyze it... (so for future reference post more info bout your pc)

thats sound good ty man
but its not as if i  just achieevd to istall the game and play now
i have 2 eyar playing this with the same pc with the same conection and with the same RAM 180
i just got this problem when i donwloaded the anthemro full set up 2007_12_04 and stalled again cuz i previously unistalled it
and when i try to unistalled again it says" cant remove this program uz the uninstall file is missing"
this full set up doesnt have an uninstall file
btw some enginner and tecnical person with knowledge about this say when a file is runing at 99 its cosue the file is damage
Can this be true?


BTW here is my pc info:
sistem: windows XP
intel[R] pentium[R] 4 cpu 2.40 GHz
2.40GHz, 192 MB de RAM
i live in venezuela- caracas  ( south amerca?)


EDIT: i think and i want some advice if there is a problem in any y RO file if i have to remove or replace  any file , anything /SOB

RO will always take up as much of the cpu as it can, so that high cpu usage is normal.

If it only happens during the day, your neighbors may be using up all the bandwidth for your neighborhood.
If that's the case, there's not much you can do unless you switch ISPs.

that was what i was thinking about
in fact most poepple around em tell me that
btw here is a short history that came  to my mind while i was thinking posibles sources
here i go

3 month ago i took my pc to a cyber room ( cafe net, internet room, whaatever you can call it) the matter is that si a place where we tehre are a lot of pc and peopple access to ineternet form there lol ( i didnt know who to call it in  english)
getting back to the topic... i took my pc there for maintenance and i left it there like 3 days
when i took my pc back  this problem started and it started just  in the same day i took my pc  back
for some reason this cyber room is opened at 6:00 am and close at 10:00 PM but most of the time the owner of this room
stay late playing mmorpg with some other friend and they finished at midnigth /sigh
i proved couse i joined them once and stay like 3:00 AM and i asked him if they do that ll the time and they answer me they do
they close just at 10 pm but for clients( comercial busyness) but they stay wake till midnigth ( f course i did experienced this before i give them my pc for maitanencement)
so its kinde razonable the problem start fter they got my pc and the conetion alwasy work fine fter midnight the time they all finish they work time
/hmm
so i was thinking maybe the source of the problem is there
i already submited a suport to my internet manager office
so im watting response form there about if my conection wethere or not is being stolen


thank for your advice i hopethis will be the problem and i could solve it
/no1
if not i will still posrtin /sob

hmmmm I have intel[r] too and I dont think it fully supports RO anyway =P, so it might (partially) contribute to any of the lag you might have been gettiing, even if it int very severe...

And I dunno, have you tried reinstalling in another folder? (ya this is stupid ik, =P but gotta try everything i guess)

By any chance do you use a wireless internet connection? If so somebody may be "stealing" your internet.

If not this could be due to your motherboard drivers, if there not up to date it can cause something similar to this.

Bumping is a no-no.

Anyway there's lot's of reasons for lag

Quote

Q: This server is really laggy, why don't the GMs Fix it?
A: Lag is not always the server's fault, there are many things that will determine if you get lag or not such as:

    * Your Internet Connection Speed
    * Your Internet Server provider (ISP)
    * How far away you live from the server
    * Being In overcrowded locations such as Prontera or Skellington
    * Running other programs
    * Your computers Specifications (RAM, HDD Etc...)f

Not reading your wall of text, but if you're lagging it's your problem.
I haven't felt lag anytime I've been on recently.

So either get a better connection, or quit. /ok

Close ur msn messenger case it will cause some lagness on ur Ro. No it doesnt mean that u can't chat while Roing but dun let Ro overlap ur messenger.

Seems like a connection/throughput problem. You can try running pings, or a packet monitor (eg. Wireshark) and see if you get a lot of retransmissions.

AnthemRO running at full CPU load is normal - that's how they coded it, that's how it runs.

First of all check your internet speed.
Open this web page to check what speed you are currently getting.

http://us.mcafee.com/root/speedometer/

Once the page is open click this link on the bottom of the page.
(http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/2888/clickoa3.jpg)
Post what speed you are getting over here.

Then Defragment your primary Hard Disk.
Start>All Programs>Accessories>System Tools>Disk Defragmenter
Select C:\ Drive or your Primary HD and press the Defragment button.
Warning : This may take several hours and you are not advised to use your computer while it works.

After that Download the Beta Client
Yes as amazing as it might sound, the Beta client uses less resources and memory than the original client.

Also don't forget to
Post your computer's hardware specs mainly,
Right click "My Computer">Select Properties>Post a screenshot of the properties window.

i did it
and my internet conection speed is at 100
thats is my inetrent anyways
is that good a 100k ineternet speed
i s the problem there
if it is why i could play nomally some month ago /hmm

Nah..100k is not great speed really but its excellent for playing RO, I think the problem lies in your Computer itself and not the internet connection.

Please do the last part of my suggestion,

These are the recommended system requirements for Ragnarok Online.

OS          Windows 98se/me/2000/XP
CPU        Pentium - 700 MHz or higher (Athlon CPU, Celeron)
RAM       256 MB or higher
VGA        Video Card DirectX compatible video card with 32MB video memory, Transform & Lighting, DirectX 8.0 or higher
SOUND    Sound Card DirectX compatible sound card / 3D Surround Sound Support
Other      Other 700MB or higher Hard Drive space

Clearly your computer has a much higher configuration than this. The minimum connection speed it a 56k connection, while you have a 100k connection.

The only possible problem that I can see it that your computer is slow because of the numerous other programs installed/running and/or lack of proper maintainance. 

• You should uninstall unneeded programs from Add/Remove programs in your computers Control Panel.
• You should Defragament the primary hard disk as I have explained in my previous post.
• You should Keep other programs closed such as MSN messenger and all other programs in your system tray.
• Most importantly you should download the Beta Client because of reasons explained previously.

The best option ofcourse if you are comfortable with it is to reformat your computer.

Sorry, but that is all I can help you with, because in my opinion this problem of yours is neither because of your internet connection nor because of your computers configuration. If you need any help with the methods I have suggested or have any more questions feel free to ask.

thank you so much for all your advice mançyou have been the few one who has helped me

Once you patch your Sakray Download the Beta Client,

Download AnthemBetaClient.zip (http://zapbomb.googlepages.com/AnthemBetaClient.zip)

After extracting the above to your RO folder you will need to run AnthemNew.exe

i already got all thsoe files
and doen that  several times
but ima first ptch teh sakaray then download the beta version
( unistll and instll again) sigh

Might be because of your internet connect. Speed does not always say a lot, it also depends on the distance and the network. Try pinging the server's IP address (anyone who can provide it?) and see what your ping is.
