I play in server 19 east. when I go into the golden-shire or really any other place my computer lags and locks up. it does this and while this happens i hear my hard drives working as if they are reading or writing data to or from the drive. I really don't know why it does this, my system is started below and I am running WOW at 1024x768 at medium settings

P4 2.4C GHz (@ 3.6 GHZ)
Asus P4C800 E- DELUXE
OCZ Pc4200 cl 2.5 512MB
Stock Intel HeatSink AS 5
Asus P4C800 E Deluxe
Antec TruePower 450 watt
ATI Radeon 9600XT
WD RAPTOR 2X36.6 (RAID-0)
WD 5400rpm 2x40gb (RAID 1)

That ain't a hardware issue. Sounds like you HDD is thrashing due to paging issues. Try increasing physical memory and virtual memory.

It sounds like the game has a glitch. BFV used to do the same thing in the temple.

SO, Then he can just post in the Software forum. Now if he posted "what new technologies are implemented in World of Warcraft" or "how does a game like the world of warcraft communicate with the hardware" This is techsupport, this forum is not titled tech support it is titled Highly Technical. If you want tech support go to the forum titled Tech Support. Its just that simple.
