I appreciate the help. I have gone to multiple places asking for help but everyone just shrugs their shoulders. I just ran a download and upload test. Rated 5/5 on the DL and 3/5 on the upload. So possibly it could be a upload issue. Any ways to improve this?

I believe the games came with the latest Direct X. I have 9.0C installed. It's an internet connection issue because if I play a game that isn't a MMO like Far Cry or F.E.A.R. it runs fine.

Hello, I am new to these forums so I don't know if what I am asking has been hit on a thousand times or not but any help would be appreciated. I am having lag issues when trying to play any PC game online. It used to be that all my online games worked fine then all the sudden one day I was lagging extremely bad when entering any online game. The weird thing is that when I come here and run a test I get 5/5 stars, but the moment I get into a online game it's unplayable. At first I thought this might be a router issue so I tried directly connecting it into the modem (Comcast), but it didn't fix it. So I took my computer over to a friends house who plays the games all the time but my computer was still going extremely slow. I tried swapping out my video card for his video card but the issue didn't get fixed. I tried swapping out the RAM in the computers and upped mine to 1.5 GB but it didn't fix the issue. I took my computer to a shop to get it fixed and they believed it to be a overheating issue. So they installed more fans and swapped out the video card. I took it home and the same problem persists. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the games multiple times to no avail. I have done system restores to no avail. I have ran spyware and registry clean up programs that have fixed many issues but do not help with the problem. My main issue is that I can download files upwards of 2mb a sec, but cannot play a online game that I used to play fine. I have a 1.9GHz processor, 1.5GB of Ram, a 256mb Video card. I don't think its any hardware related issue. In one game for example I can run around for a few seconds at a latency of 400, then after a minute or so the latency will all the sudden jump to the thousands. In other games its choppy from the get-go. Any advice? I have spent countless hours trying to fix this and am almost tempted to go buy a new computer out of frustration.
