I haven't played Everquest II in a couple of months. I started playing again yesterday and I've noticed the lag is horrible. I never had a problem with lag before. I have 2.4GHz processor and 1024 RAM. I usually have the game set at Balanced performance and it has always run smoothly.
I've run McAfee scans, ewido, adaware and spybot, but found nothing thats made any difference. I lowered the graphic settings just in case my memory was faulty(but even way back when I only had 512 RAM it wasn't constantly laggy on the IoR). It's even laggy in the trade skill areas with no one else inside. Even the character select screen is laggy. I haven't noticed my overall internet speed being any slower when surfing. Is there some computer setting I may have altered in the months between playing that would cause lag?
I'd hate to cancel my subscription, but this is unbearable.
Any help would be appreciated.
