A speed hack? Whats that? And Why the heck would I reinstall windows? thats retarded.

Why si that retarded?

It could be argued the even RUNNING windows is retarded.

Yes.

Including the problem (hopefully).

Just back everything you need up onto CDs or something.

[chasingtruth]

Do you really think that it would fix the problem? And do you think there is any other wway? Cuz i would prefer not to go thru all of that hassle. Thats alot of work. And im sure my dad, who would have to do all the work, would not be happy about that.

It might.

THough the fact that it affects 2 computers sounds like you either have some type of firewall or somehting set up.



Do you run norton firewall or somehting similar?

To check basics, is your account on neo logged in and verified?

[chasingtruth]

OK. So heres the deal. It does not work on MY pc or my laptop, but I just went on my mums computer and it works....... wow. What the heck??

Reinstall Windows. Or install Linux.

[chasingtruth]

Yeah. I run norton firewall. but i tried turning it off, and it still doesnt go thru. do i need to wait or something? Cuz i saw a red "x" on my mums norton thing on her computer.

Soo... Could it be something with my norton? My mums red x is only because she hasnt backed it up. Nothing else. But could there be some setting on mine that I need to change?

And Why would BOTH my pc and my laptop have this problem if its windows? I could understand if its like a firewall setting or something like that.

Disable the firewall and try.

Norton seems tothink cookies are used to ahck a computer or some shit.

Just disable the firewalls and see if that helps.

XD Haha. I always laugh whenever anyone says the word 'retarded' .

A speedhack manipulates the program to speed up or slow down, depending on your preference. Cheat Engine (a famous cheating software) has a built-in speedhack in case you're interested.

I already tried disabling the firewalls. I went on and tried immediatley afterwards though. Should I give it sometime before I try playing the game again?? And My mums firewall was on when I tried the games on hers.

My dad was talkin to me and he said that My dell pc and laptop came with windows xp plus, or something like that, and that my mums computer has just plain windows xp. could this be causeing this??

Windows XP Pro? I've never heard of Windows XP "Plus"

[chasingtruth]

Yeah. sorry. lol. I couln't remember exactly what he said. But yeah. thats the one. So could that have something to do with it??

Doubtful. It has to either be your security settings, your firewall settings, or you.

One of those is broken and needs to be fixed.

UUUUGGHH!!!!!!!!!!!! I just tried going on my laptop and changing everything to the same setting of my mum's computer, and it still doesn't work!!! this is really bugging me. How can I get to the bottom of this and even find out what the problem is??

Let me RDC your computer and I'll check all your settings.


I gotta install Windows XP on a separate computer first though.

[chasingtruth]

I know Im sounding really dumb. But what does RDC mean?

[Cataliste]

Remote Desktop Connect. Basically I'd log into your computer and check things for you.

[chasingtruth]

Ok. So you will be able to find whats wrong? Thats crazy! Neopets needs guys like you! Haha. everyone there is no help at all.

I don't want to be a pest. believe me. I hate being a pest. But do you know about when you will be able to find whats wrong?

And how exactly do you do an RDC? I just want to learn these things, ya know? lol

you there dude?

[Cataliste]

It would take too long to explain how to set it up.



Reinstall windows.

[chasingtruth]

you sure thats the only solution? And what if it doesnt work?

So whats your reasoning for sating that I have to reinstall windows?

Windows is a shitty OS, and reinstalling works 90% of the time. If it doesn't work, at least your computer will be faster.
