Hey peeps. I need help with a slow loading game client all of a sudden.

  Ok, just a lil info.  Reinstalled windows 7 on a spare Raptor drive I had lying around, installed every windows update and hardware driver.  Got windows as streamlined as she can be for WGT only and got the correct flash installed.  Meter is great by the way, maybe get 1 in 20 meter skips now, anyway I digress.  What happens now though, is after I click to hit the ball at the ding line, my golfer animation takes 15 to 20 secs after that period to actually hit the ball.  The game client seems to be taking ages to load my shots, the holes and menus.  Could you point me into the direction I should be looking to try and amend this annoying problem.  I've checked my flash storage is set to 1mb so I know it's not that.  

   

  Kind Regards

  Tony

  It is most likely that it is just a temporary slow down (lag)

  from His Majesty's Royal Internet Connection exiting the UK

  and then to the US. (200ms lag)   You can verify this by

  trying some websites in the UK (comet.co.uk, bbc.co.uk), and

  if they are speedy, then you know that HIs Majesty's Royal

  Internet Connection out of the country is probably to blame.

  it never used to be this way though before the re-install which is why it got me wondering.  My line speed it the same 16mb line which is plenty quick enough.  Not fibre speeds but still very quick.
