My system is old. I only have 2 gigs of RAM. Using Vista Home Premium 32bit and Chrome.

When I first started everything was excellent, but not now.

Tried everything I've read in other posts and still my swing meter isn't smooth.

Would like to start playing again.

Thanks

Try another browser. Maxthon is the prevailing choice.

Just tried it , same thing as Chrome and FireFox.

Just uninstalled FireFox and Maxthon.

Played 1 hole just now swing meter is still jumpy on Chrome only.

You are using nigh 50% of your RAM in just running Windows alone. Asking it to also run an intense graphics orientated game such as this is really asking a lot of it. I would suggest you at least double it but for the small extra outlay you may consider upping it to 8gig. Atb

So what has happened in this game that became so complected that way back when 2 gig was OK?

And prove to me that 50% of my Ram is for Windows only?

Testing programs would be nice.

Thanks.

Hi TopFlite

My system is old. I only have 2 gigs of RAM. Using Vista Home Premium 32bit and Chrome.

I use vista home 32 bit the most you can add in mem is 1 gig windows 32 bit will only use 3 gig of mem just how it is.

I play with Firefox My question to you is, have you added any new progs that are running in the back round. I do not use windows defender or windows fire wall, I had to turn off update was getting meter jump, update was a mem hog.

When you get into the WGT play page make sure your profile page is closed and have no other windows open. Check in game options and turn of what you do not need, WGT has added some options in there updates you my not want to load as part of your game play.

By the way Microsoft is phasing out updates for Vista they want all to be on 10 lol.

I hope this helps Top, Good Luck and Good Golf.

I am currently playing on a C2D 2.4 GHz and a 2 GB of ram....apart the fact that dots are moving slower due to high levels, other than that i have a smooth meter. The keypoint is i do this on a desktop...on a laptop probably would not go far to play just a decent single shot. So, check your temperatures if you play on a laptop.
