technical issue

edited September 2010 in Poker Chat
Reading the issues over disconnects prompts me to post an issue which may be connected. I find that when I do something else on the Laptop while the game is continuing - even something simple like checking emails - I can hear the game in the background carrying on and wait for it to pop up when I get a hand to play. But when it does pop up or I click it to the front , it races thro' hands at great speed and my hand is autofolded before I've even seen it. So the game on my machine must be running slower than the true game while it sits in the background. This has only started happening recently and nothing else has changed. Just wondered if anyone else suffered this or had any ideas ?

    On my old computer it used to do the same thing when i had more than 2 or 3 windows open.

    i,m no computer whizz but i know it takes up a lot more memory to play on here  than on a downloaded site and will slwop games down if youve got to much running in the background

    3 days now - without disconnection

    i presume Sky have sorted there problems from last cpl of weeks

    THINK THIS IS A PC PROBLEM NOT SKY IMO

    IS YOUR PC OLD OR LOW MEMORY?? SOUNDS LIKE YOUR PC IS NOT FAST ENOUGH TO MULTI TASK.. TRY CLEANING YOUR MEMORY OR UPGRADING YOUR PC... MY OLD COMPUTER DID EXACTLY THE SAME... NOT HAPPENED ONCE SINCE MY NEW LAPPY ARRIVED
