how old is your computer?

i agree because the server might me oMg pWnt-ing your computer

or it simply might be everyones getting low FPS for some reason

[flop159]

its 1-2years old not sure really, how would it make a difference?

[jackdaripper]

its 1-2years old not sure really

when you run the server/wow does your computer CPU get louder

[flop159]

holy shit, if u mean CPU usage it was around 15% when i popped up WoW (it was minimized) it jumped to 40-50%

whats this mean??

damn if you CPU jump to 50% your server is going to be lagging i can tell you have to fix that tho

[flop159]

yea wtf does it mean i need a new processor or do i have settings wrong. im told the processor is good its duel core

[flop159]

when i closed wow, and the server was still running with 1 person on it the CPU was around 5% sometimes 0%

does it just jump because i dont have a video card in it?

i got the cpu usage up to 97% scrolling up and down this webpage very fast with the scroll mouse button lol..

[jackdaripper]

well there is not alot of this to fix this but you can type ctrl+alt+delete and delete un nessary programs that run in the background or you can add more RAM =( hope this helps if not pm me+Rep

1. Wow/
2. Video cards, have NO effect on server lag, when its on the server.
3. You spent all this time helping him when his problem was clearly, his comp is too slow to run a server and play WoW at the same time.

[flop159]

so what do i need to do to fix the lag? new processor/motherboard?

the server can still only hold 14 people when its the only thing up
