    Turn off any background programs you have. Like AIM. Even ProChat if you're in there, it makes me lag on XP. But close out of anything else you don't need. It will help.

    Also you may want to consider upgrading your RAM. For Vista you need at least 1 Gig, so that's probably what it came with.

      Yeah, I got a new computer with Vista too.

      FFR lagged MAJORLY before I got a pop-up on my computer telling me to update my flash player. I did that, and now FFR is playable, but still not how it was on XP or anything...=\

      I have 2GB on RAM if that means anything, I dunno.

        Downgrade the OS to an XP.

        Response to succeeding post: Do it. I think 20 paragraphs of explanation is necessary. I don't know how it's done either.

          I came into this thread with the intention of saying something like this.

          Granted I would have stretched it out to 20 paragraphs or something.

                  Isn't going to happen seeing as how the only way to get something like that is through illegal means.

                  FFR doesn't endorse public showing of illegal activities.

                  EDIT: Which is why ElRayford suggested AIM.

                      There is a way to fix the lag on vista, highandroid made a thread about it, but it's better off switching to XP anyway (you risk damaging your computer with highandroids tutorial, at least I think I remember reading that in the thread).

                            Unfortunately I don't have/use AIM. =\
                            Apparently my friend has the XP home edition installion disc though, but if that fails for whatever reason, I suppose I'll quit bitching and make an AIM account, LOL.

                            Apparently it doesn't on my computer.
