floating units/nanospray freeze

[blublub]

ive posted that problem before didnt get the solution so im trying again :/

the so called crash when units starting to float always happens in the same time interval (9:30-10:30 game time) never before never afther i can play games for few hours if i wont crash in that bracket
reinstalation of the spring didnt help
this problem dosnt appear in all the games it just sometimes happens and sometimes don't theres no rule

my isp is fine nothing wrong with it ive tried on another isp (friend is playing spring there on his pc with any problems) same my game crashed at 10:11 game time

theres nothing wierd in the infolog heres the end of it from one of the game that crashed for me

this problem started about 2-3 months ago im not sure what was changed in my spec in that time it coudl be the graph card that has changed (but it dosnt look like a graphic problem) or the instalation of sp2 for my windows xp x64

any ideas ?

Well that log looks clean to me, but I would expect you have a lot more running processes than just those three. Perhaps you should download hijackthis and run the program locally.

[blublub]

it is scaned localy

Are you running vista or something? I've never seen hijackthis logs from Vista, so I suppose they might be a lot different from XP.

[blublub]

windows xp (64bit) SP2

[LordMatt]

Hmm, maybe it hides standard system processes now or something.

[imbaczek]

Does it freeze when playing against an AI?

Do you use a router with, say, upnp enabled and torrents running or something like this? Some routers don't like this.

yeah new hijack hides the standard ones

gonna try with ai

none programs running (including torrents) when im playing and i got only internet protoclol (TCP/IP) checked i the local network settings (upnp you mean the file and printer sharing by windows? )

[imbaczek]

if you don't know what it is, you probably not need to care. (see wikipedia if you want to know.)

try AIs, if freezes won't happen, there's probably something wrong in the OS/network side of things.

Are you sure we're not seeing the network time out bug? Where the units start floating and particles float too, and when communication returns they snap back otherwise it times out and spring exits?

This could be anything from a cheap home router being overwhelmed, to a misconfigured server in an isp server farm, or even a poorly configured firewall.

i dont use a firewall
i had 2 rounters one was comtred so it wasn't so bad and the problem there was the same but the lighting ended his life
now i got some noname from my isp so it woudl be rather unpossible that 2 routers woudl be "broken" in the same way and it dosnt couse me any problems its is just spring that isint working well
it can be the server those guys from my isp are so dumb....

i need to try another os or pc here to be sure till i will call them if there will be no other suggestions how to solve my problem :/


btw the conection never returns and it dosnt exit the game it just keep floating all the time i left the pc for few hours and still no exiteven that the game was alredy over and host exited and closed his game in lobby and was playing another one hosted by someone else (when i sometimes lag normaly out for example i will unplug my conection the game will exit afther it has no respond for few secs strange isit it ?)
