How to fix game freeze lag?

I have some serious freezelag when i play online games like Starcraft 2 and World of Warcraft even if i adjust everything to low graphics it still freeze. It started small a few weeks ago and now it's worse, i havent had any of the issues with the video freeze that other people have had on youtube and such, and i have the 10.7.1 update aswell nothing helps, any one know what the problem is?
I am using Ethernet, it's not a new modem but not that old 2 years maybe.
I went to the Starcraft forums and this is the awnser i get there from their costumer service:
Blizzard Officals claims that this has nothing to do with SC2, but moreover because of openGL limitations on Mac OS X.
Providing better drivers is Apple's task.
Any one know if these drivers are on the way or is it better to uninstall Lion?
This computer should not lag playing those games.

Try downloading a different minecraft launcher, like tekkit launcher, and switch it to vanilla mode. Once you are there it should run smoothly. Another option is to go into options and try using Maximum FPS and keep your rendering distance at tiny-small

  • How to fix graphic freeze while playing minecraft?

    Hi
    My computer freezes every time I try playing minecraft. It works for the first 30/40min, but crashes more and more frequently after this (every 2/3 min for longer and longer periods of time!).
    If I stop playing for an hour or two, for some reason it works again.
    I am running no other program apart from minecraft and Hamachi to connect to the server (I am not the local host).
    I have a macbook pro 12-inch, mid 2012 runinf a 2.5 GHz processor. I have 4GB memory and my graphic card is the intel HD Graphic 4000.
    Sofware up to date on OS X Lion 10.7.5.
    Anyone else getting this??? Or better yet how to fix this!!
    Thank you
    Martin

  • How to fix computer freeze with external USB drive attached

    Hi, My computer has frozen a few times lately when my external drive was hooked in, mostly to upload music to Itunes on my MacBook Air.  Anyone know what's happening and how to fix it?
    Thanks
    Peggy ;~)

    the image isnt just 1 big file
    its got a bunch of files
    som .ini configuration files here and there
    the trick is to find which files controls the directory to start loading from
    and change the waiting for f:
    to waiting for anything else
    external ODD, flash drive, or anything other than the internal ODD cuz its broken
    the files on the disc are
    recovery disc+
    .....boot+
    ..............fonts
    ..............bcd
    ..............boot.sdi
    ...................eftsboot.exe
    ......efi+
    .................microsoft+
    ...................................boot+
    ..............................................font s
    .................................................. ......bcd
    .....HDDPREP+

    ....06466XSP5.SWM
    ....06466XV1.CRC
    ....bootmgr
    ....Setenv.ini
    im know im not super computer expert but as far as my knowledge goes its probably 1 of thos xxx.ini files cuz usually contain settings and stuff like that
    they are easy to open with notepad and easy to just change one of them and burn a new disc with the corrected file
    i just need someone to help me figure out which one to change and what to change it to the rest is easy

  • How to 'Fix or Freeze' Flexed Tracks?

    I am looking for the best way to fix flexed audio tracks in their new state once I am satisfied with the editing etc.
    What is the best way to save them? By freezing the track, or bouncing it to make a separate audio file? Or any other way?
    And then can I delete the old regions, as they may be referenced by other arrangements? Would that save some processing power as well?
    I presume I should re-beat map the track/s (i'm editing drums), to make sure my quantising represents 'on the beat'?
    The problem I've having is that, for whatever reason, sometimes I find that when I re-open a file with previously flexed tracks, one or two of the tracks have 'forgotten' their flexed state and have flexed themselves according to their own transients rather than to the transients on the Q marked tracks I have chosen in the phase locked group.
    I'm editing drums and I set and adjust the transients within the sampler editor of the bass & snare tracks and then choose these as the Q tracks for the drum group, which includes toms, hihat and overheads. Often, is the overheads that forget the Q transients and slip forward and out of phase with the rest of the drums, In flex view mode you can see the flex lines are not lined up within the grouped tracks.

    I have ran ssocfg:
    oracle@server:/oracle/mid/oracleosd/sso/bin> export ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/mid/oracleosd
    oracle@server:/oracle/mid/oracleosd/sso/bin> export ORACLE_SID=ASDB
    oracle@server:/oracle/mid/oracleosd/sso/bin> ./ssocfg.sh http server.domain 7777
    running ssocfg.sh
    finished running ssocfg.sh, exit status 0 I also have checked OperationURLs of oiddas in OID (using Directory Manager). It is correct: http//server.domain:7777/
    After this I have restarted all the components of Fusion Middleware. But unfortunately, the problem still exists...
    Does anyone else got some ideas?

  • Anyone figure out how to fix the dialer lag?

    Nothing like dialing a number and having to wait 30 seconds to 5 minutes just to actually make the call.  What if there's an emergency???  I have deleted the cache (pressing power and home at the same time), force stopped the dialer......nothing works more than a few hours.  :-(

    I have had this problem.  It's even worse when you have to dial 911 and have to wait 1 minute for it to start dialing.
    A hard reset worked for about a day.  With no apps on the phone, it started lagging.
    From the updates that the phone had:
      .596 lagged a little for me
       .602 did not lag and seemed to be the best
       .605 lags all the time and seemed to break more stuff
    I believe those are the right update numbers.
    My solution is an upgrade soon because I still have 5.3gb of space free on the phone. So, caching would not be an issue I would think.

  • How to fix screen freeze

    I have tried increasing RAM, repairing disk, clearing vents, using smcFanControl. I have plenty of hd space, but i still have an unresponsive frozen screen happening several times a week. It does it whether I'm browsing or not, sometimes even when ive just booted up. Any suggestions welcome.

    Thanks. Passed the AHT no faults were found. Will do the extended test later.

  • How to fix the mouse and keyboard freezing when installing Windows 7 on 27' iMac late 2013?

    Hi, I have a question for u guys who can solve this.
    I recently bought the new 27' iMac late 2013, and I installed some softwares and used it for few days.
    Before I bought this I used the 15' Macbook Pro Retina, I installed Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit, and I used the Windows for gaming.
    So back to my question.
    So I bought the new iMac and I was tying to install Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit (with the same CD).
    After dividing the partition, and other stuff, the iMac rebooted and I hold down the option (alt) key. I choose the Windows CD, and it said it is "getting ready to install Windows". I let it load, and the blue screen where you choose the language, time/location and keyboard input popped up. At the bottom right corner (at the same page), there is a button that said "Next (N)" which u need to click it to go to the next step. I was moving my mouse to click the button, but I realized that my mouse and keyboard was frozen. I tried both wireless and wired mouse and keyboard but they didn't work. There was nothing I could do. I hold the power button, (that was the only option) and tried my mouse and keyboard on Mac OS and it worked fine.
    I thought something went wrong in the CD so I bought the Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit. The result was same. It frizzed again. (I just wast few hundred $)
    Latter my friend lend me his Windows 8.1 Pro 64 bit. I tried it, and it worked, it didn't freezed on Windows 8.
    The problem is I played Battlefield 4, Titan fall, and Watch Dogs, and Battlefield 4 multiplayer doesn't work on Windows 8.1. Even though when it works on Windows 8, I prefer using Windows 7.
    Dose anyone knows how to fix this freezing thing?
    My computer is:
    27' iMac late 2013 (bought it just few days ago)
    I did no upgrades when I bought it, except the graphic card.
    I bought the iMac in Korean Apple Store, and my Windows CD is in Korean, can that be a problem?
    Please leave a comment when u think u can solve my problem.

    See -> http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1636/en_US/boot_camp_install-setup_ 10.8.pdf.
    In addition to the Windows disc (or USB flash drive with the Windows installer) you'll need a 8GB+ flash drive.
    The referenced manual - on page 3, I think, gives you a run-down of what you'll need before you begin the installation. You may also want to post any further Boot Camp questions in the Boot Camp forum -> https://discussions.apple.com/community/windows_software/boot_camp.
    Good luck,

  • My iPad 1st is freezing up when i play games on it, anyone know how to fix this problem? Please Help

    My iPad 1st is freezing up when i play games on it, anyone know how to fix this problem? Please Help

    This is an ipad 2 it hasn't been updated, the thing is I restored it to the orginal setting because it was acting up, instead of 59.9 GB it gave me the memory capacity of 58.9 that has been already been use. Do you think using a different computer that hasn't been use on my ipad will raise the memory capacity? I've done it before just that the computer that I've been using has my ipad's data.

  • Firefox lags and freezes several times in an hour - How to fix?

    I've read up on the forums and nothing seems to be describing what I'm experiencing with Firefox.
    The last 3-4 days I've had several instances where Firefox lags or completely freezes up when switching between tabs. It will still somewhat work but it's ridiculously slow.
    For example, it WILL eventually go to that tab, but it will take a minute, and then nothing on the page will work for a minute, so on and so on. Sometimes a black screen will appear where the text should be. Sometimes it stays black, sometimes the page eventually loads. It was only one website so I thought maybe that page was having issues until today when it started happening on several other websites.
    It's happening quite often and it's driving me crazy. I only had an error message once, early on when this started. Since then it just seems to lag and freeze, lag and freeze, over and over without giving me an error message until I get fed up and close out of it. Upon start up again, it works fine for a bit.
    I don't use any toolbars. I updated Windows and my drivers. Computer has been restarted several times since this started.
    I'd appreciate any suggestions!

    Hello EMA1, try to run [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/troubleshoot-firefox-issues-using-safe-mode firefox in safe mode], works ?
    If firefox in safe mode has the same behavior then, try to boot your win 8 computer in [http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2809468/en-us Windows Safe Mode with network support] and check firefox again. Any luck ?
    thank you

    How to fix authentic error in game centre of iPad mini?

    Following further research, this keyboard lag issue appears to be related to the (botched) iOS 7.1 update. It's good to know I am not the only user who had his iPad mini rendered unusuable by the iOS 7.1 update, however that does not solve my problem.
    Anyone out there who has further suggestions (except doing a factory reset via iTunes)?
