I like to play games on Pogo, lately it has been shutting down my browser in the middle of a game. It is mostly a java run site. I usually use Mozilla Firefox as a browser, but it does the same thing when I use IE.

Resident Evil 2 Runs slow in 640x280 res on a P4 2.8Ghz w/ a gig of ram?

max_planck735

I'm trying to run Resident Evil 2 on my P4 2. 8Ghz, w/ a gig of ram and an NVidia GeForce4 MX 420 video card. The game runs fine at 320x240 resolution, but when I play it at 640x480 the game runs about 70% as fast as it does in 320x240.

Computer Freeze!!!

ParkerAndrews

My friend recently built me a computer to use at home. However, after minor usage, I found that my new computer had the tendency to freeze a lot. Often it will freeze at the windows welcome screen, and other times it will freeze when I insert a new cd into the dvd-rom drive.
