I just installed windows XP and I am having mad problems. First was my soundcard (audigy gamer) freezing my computer with a humming sound. Now its my slow internet speed. My biggeset problem is when im playing CS my connection lags to the point where I can't even move. Sometimes it starts out good around 150 ping but then just goes off the scale at like 2354 ping or something. I have tried using TweakMaster and some of the tweaks on the speedguide site but im still laggin out with all my half-life mods. They did help my download speeds but possibly at the cost of critical packet loss. I am on a network that is connected to a 4 port linksys router that 4 computers are connected. I use at@t cable broadband. If anyone could help me that would be crucial.

If you just installed XP like yesterday (Friday), and are experiencing lag.....don't worry, the entire world is. Major outbreak of a new virus similar to Code Red last night....everywhere is having problems. Will probably be bad for at least a week or so.
