    CONNECTION INTERRUPTED while playing game

    My new favorite game is Urban Terror
    It runs great on older computers and laptops, but a lot of people (and freidns and others I know) play it, so it's funner that way...

    BUT I have one problem on one of my computers. Note that it's fine on any different computer anywhere else:
    I can play for a few minutes then I get a bit of lag, then back to normal, then a bit of [Connection Interrupted] then it works again then at some point it just won't stop saying [Connection Interrupted] which makes it unplayable. I've confirmed tat I'm the only one on the server with the lag...

    I've come to the conclusion it's my computer. Could my network card be overheating?

    Specs:
    -Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 64-bit
    -Core 2 Duo E6600 2.4GHz
    -2GB DDR2
    -320GB WD Caviar Blue SATA
    -TL-WN321G USB Wireless card
    -2Wire DSL Modem/router/gateway thing from AT&T

    Any assistance would be much appreciated...

    Check your router... more likely. Doubt it's the network card.

    Download WinMTR and keep a traceroute running to the IP of the server you're on and see if your router drops data packets when you're lagging.

      Are you wired or wireless?

        Could be CRC errors in packets. That would be real bad.

          OK... update:
          Using an Ethernet cable seems to have fixed the problem!
          I still get the random CONNECTION INTERRUPTED but only once in a while for short and I'm sure that's just my crappy DSL
          I guess that lousy wireless card just overheated or something.
          I'll check out that software and see if I can spot anything.
          Thanks guys
          Then again my phone isn't able to connect to my Wifi sometimes either sometimes it works sometimes it doesnt... but that's currently a non-issue anyway.

              EVGA GTX 980 TI black screen when launching a game - Why?
              by fab13
              I have a problem with an EVGA GTX 980 TI,

              I have a problem with an EVGA GTX 980 TI it displays a black screen when starting a game on the menu for example either in HDMI OR DISPLAY PORT.

              The basic problem is that the card does not boot, the FDMF 6823A mosfet shorts internally on the 12V line and I also changed an original one and now the card boots.

              Driver installation OK
              Detection of the card OK
              No black screen on the desktop
              No short circuit on the GPU
              All voltages stable

              The problem is when starting a...
