Not a bad set up thdeere so that's not it but since you mentioned you're on
a dial-up then that makes perfect sense.

I used to have to do the same in PoK even with broadband. What really made
the difference for me was the addition of a new vid card. I picked up an
nVidia 5500 at Wal*Mart for $120 and it was well worth the investment. I
still lag occasionally but nothing compared to what I used to!

My computer takes about 5-7 minutes to load from the char select screen. I
have 1gb ram, with an amd processor ( running win 2000 ) lol i was cheap,
but it works. However I am on dialup, as there isnt anything faster or
better in my area yet, tho i hear wi-fi is coming so....<crossing fingers>.
The huige wait tho, sometimes longer than the actual loading, is zoning into
PoK. It is is horribley long wait...worse if the character i want to play is
camped there...so until there is a change..I seldom go there now ort camp
there. I have a pocket cleric and chanter to temp/ virtue and kei, me in
nexus, so al is good.
  
  Tho I do have an issue with PoK..am I the only one that has to run around
PoK loking at their feet and suing the map so not to run into stuff? The lag
there, most times ( early morn seems to be best) is very bad...
