Okay, so sometimes the game stops. All monsters freeze, all players everything. No chatting nothing. But I can move around, the game wont logout so I press alt+F4 to close it. I relogin and the game is in fast forward. Like everything is sped up. Rotation, everything, PLZ HELP

    If you are using a dual or quad-core processor, you may have to change the Affinity settings for the processor to run the
    game better.

    To do this, start the game and then press Ctrl + Alt + Del to bring up the Task Manager. In the
    processes tab, find elementclient.exe. Right-click on it and choose Set Affinity.

    Untick/uncheck all but one CPU, then select OK.

    I'm very disappointed with this laptop. I can't even use windows DVD maker for vista. Not to mention most of the windows scheme and other MMO's. Thank god I can play PW. When the diagnostic started, it said there have been problems finding system information or something like that.

    You'll want to contact your laptop manufacturer's website for a video driver update; the 915 series were never intended to run with Vista, so there are no official drivers to my knowledge, and they could be causing this behavior.
