The pc in general runs fine.. but when it comes to playing games it just sucks lol.. like on warcraft if playin a map that is pretty big or w/e.. the screen will like jump across the map and my curser will jump across the screen and i cant control my units or anything... therefore making me lose / quit / not play at all... lol and it just puzzles me because the other computer we have... the spec of it isnt as good as this computer and yet it runs every game smoothly... even Call of Duty 4.. which is a big game isnt it ? i just dont know whats up... maybe its time to buy a new computer and put an end to my misery haha what u think

If you use the standard windows defrag and just analyze, is there some WOW data listed in the fragmented file report?

Fix your TCP Receive Window Size

To change your TCP Receive Window size:

1. Launch window registry editor by clicking on Start | Run .
2. Click in the Open dropdown box and type in regedit.exe then click OK .
3. Back up your registry by selecting File | Export type in a meaningful file name, in the export range section select All and save to your hard drive. To restore your old registry you simply import this file.
4. Next you need to create a new registry key. On the left side you need to go to the directory HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\Tcpip\Parameters
5. Select Edit | New | DWORD Value .
6. Rename the new registry key to TcpWindowSize.
7. Modify the registry setting for TcpWindowSize by double clicking on the key.
8. Change the Base Setting to Decimal.
9. Enter the value 64240 and click OK, then exit RegEdit.
10. For these settings to take effect you need to close all your open applications and reboot your system.

Post back after the above changes with an update on how the machine is presently running.
