I've been having a lot of input delay problems; from selecting powers, to typing. I loose connection to mapserver frequently and I've been looking on the forums for a solution but I can't find anything. I did see that sometimes updating the video card or whatever helps, but I'm not good with computers so I dunno how to go about doing that?
All I know is I have a Toshiba Satellite laptop (brand new) and a ATI Radeon 3100 Graphics. Any suggestions? :/

Then post the results of these two programs:

  • CoH Helper - it will show us basic computer settings and your CoH configuration.


  • HijackThis - it will show us what's running on your computer concurrently with CoH. Click on "Do a system Scan and save a logfile." It will automatically open up Notepad and put the info there. Make sure Wordwrap is off in Notepad (Format > Wordwrap unchecked) before you cut and paste here.



Also, go into the game and open Menu > Options > Graphics Tab and tell us what these settings are set at:

Ultra Mode Options (will appear only if Advanced Graphics is Enabled)
  • Shadow Mode: Disabled, Stencil Maps, Shadow Maps
  • Shadow Map Shader: N/A, Low, Medium, High Quality
  • Environment Reflections: Disabled, Low, Medium, High, Ultra Quality
  • Water Effects: Disabled, Low, Medium, High, Ultra Quality
  • Advanced Occlusion Settings: Enabled or Disabled
  • Ambient Occlusion: Off, High Performance, Performance, Balanced, Quality, High, Super, Ultra

And if Advanced Occlusion is Enabled...
  • Occlusion Strength: Off, Slight, Medium, Strong, Strong with Color Bleeding
  • Ambient Resolution: Off, High Performance, Performance, Quality, High, Super High
  • Blur: No blur, Fast, Gaussian, Bilateral, Gaussian Depth, Bilateral Depth, Trilateral
