PC running slow
Ok...so for some odd reason PC doesn't load very well on my computer. it used to work just fine but now its very slow and many times it wont work at all...can anyone give me an idea of maybe whats wrong and how to fix it?
|
Server has been having some up and down times, please try to read the announcements before you ask questions like this.
|
ok my bad...i guess someone can go ahead and close this then...ill try to read the announcements more often...but since the site was running so slow i really couldnt get a chance...
|
as of 2 or 3 days ago, you should not be having any issues.. the server is running fine, and PC should be loading quite fast.
If its not, the issue is on your end.. (clear your cache, logout [clear cookies] and log back in) or your ISP's end, i.e. a bad route to our servers.. Still having problems? PM me a tracert or pathping as well as your IP, basic location, and ISP. |
im sorry man but im not as handy with comps as you are...so i honestly didnt understand much of what you said in your last snetance...could you explain to me what those are?...
and also all of my other sites work just fine and my comp seems to be running correctly..but idk.. |
ok.. first thing to do is clear your browser's cache.. what browser are you using?
http://www.wikihow.com/Clear-Your-Browser%27s-Cache after that, just log out of PC, close all browsers, log back in. |
i use chrome
and i did what the thing told me to do...what do i do next? |
I'm having problems with PC too. Have tried clearing cache, will PM a tracert.
|
I cleared my cache several times, logged out and logged in, and still, it only loads 30% of the time!
|
ok,
we'll need a trace or pathping (if your on windows) to pokecommunity.com copy/paste me the results in a PM: in windows do: start > run > cmd >> pathping pokecommunity.com [enter] (let that run, it'll take a while) in other os's, bring up your command line, and enter traceroute pokecommunity.com I'll also need to know your IP, city/state/country or location and who your ISP is. |
Don't you already have the ability to check others' IP adresses?
Also, I don't see why would you need that. And I've an odd version of XP. Can't access CMD. |
what?
what happens when you do start > run > cmd ? |
It's not just PokeCom.
Though it might be a coincidence, another forum I frequent is only showing up a fraction of the time. I think they're both hosted by the same place (if the other forum is PE2K, are they?) so it might just be site issues. :/ |
it could quite possibly be your ISPs as well.. some ISPs have terrible routing to some places.. especially if you are outside of the USA (limited connections, overloaded undersea pipes, etc)
|
i sent the results of the thing but i dont know exactly why you want the rest of the info...
btw my location is Paragon, Indiana USA...i dont mind sharing that info so im gonna go ahead and just tell you here. |
There is no run option. It goes like this.
Мои Документы Мой Компьютер Мой Нетворк Контрольная Панель Подключится > Помощь Найти Запустить Which, translated, means this: My Documents My Computer My Network Control Panel Connect > Help Find Load |

I already ran a pathping, and nothing particularly unusual came up aside from some lone lost packets. I will be sending you the results in a Private Message shortly. Quote:

may be the load one.. is it a text box with both browse and ok button?
mine says: Quote:
|
Tracerts are done to see the paths of routers a packet takes through a network. By sending this information to a site Admin such as Rukario, they can determine where exactly the cause of the problem is. No clue what a pathping does though.
Also, have you tried that load option? Sounds an awful lot like run to me... Also, Google Translate says Запустить = Run. |
It's also not my computer, actually. I am using my dad's spare... and not the last-resort, cruddy piece of junk.
EDIT: Hm... my 2000-page dictionary says otherwise, and that's in fractured English, I think. Plus, that what I translate it to. |

Actually, I have incredibly fast internet, and a great computer, and I get this trouble quite often. PC does not load all the time, often hanging, or giving me the "Web page could not be loaded, time out" error... And on multiple systems in my house. Including my PSP... As a matter of fact, I had to refresh my browser just to see this image...

and then look for command prompt.exe or cmd.exe C: could be a different drive letter for you, also you might have to edit folder options to see System32 |
for those of you having timeout or page load issues, not just slow to load, what error (page/screen) do you see exactly?
|
I usually see the Timeout page.
But every once in a while I get a "Firefox could not load the page" thing... I'd have to see if it does it again, all I have been getting are timeouts... |
screenshots would be nice so i can be quite specific to our techs
|
It stoped doing it just a few hours ago... if it happens again, I'll screen shot, okies?

Since this is something happening frequently, might I request that this thread get stickied?
|
PC is going so slow at the moment always crashing.... <.<
I mean the pages stops loading and I get this no connection sign. |
Forci Stikane: that cap looks shopped.. need a non-edited one, during your next error, if possible.
Angela: Are you having connection issues now, today, in the last few mins or hour? |
Quote:
|
shouldn't be (or been happening) for the last week and change.. there have been no issues with the server and our network techs can find no faults with the network backbone.
|
so none recently.. like lets say after they cleared that DDoS attack a week or two back?
|
I keep getting them every few pages I go to on PC.
This is the message I'm getting. http://i40.*.com/xpr2j4.png |
you getting that right now, or fairly recently cherii? If so, please do a tracert to pokecommunity.com as explained in previous posts, above.
|
I'm getting what Cherii posted. And it's happened several times today, actually. I'm having no problems with other sites; everything's loading quickly except PC.
I'll go back and do a tracert. *goes to look at instructions* |
Quote:
|
I'm having the same problem that Cherii is having, and I've sent you a tracert a long time ago. Every other site works just fine, except this one. We can't just all have bad internet connections, can we?
|
No, my Internet connection was just fixed entirely and it downloads twice as fast than normal. Even my Wii was upgraded. I think it's vBulletin, I had the same problem once on another forum. But here's the word that we need to remember: once.
|
And all of a sudden PC is running perfectly... just as I'm about to the tracert....
I'll wait and see if it happens again later, and then I'll do the tracert. |
well I dunno what's up
there isn't any logical reason for you all to be getting these load errors.. the server is running properly, the network is running properly.. it has to be the internet gods must hate you or something cause I sure as heck have no idea why you guys keep getting these errors. :\ send me the traces WHILE you are having connection issues please.. |
Same thing here. PC loads now at 2-14 seconds, like normal... Huh?

|

I Think it's just some Maintenance -Yasumin >3 |
It happens to me very recently. Its running ok now.
>>>>><<<<< |
it happens to me lately , it becomes even terribly slower when Im using PSP . sometimes Database Error Appears ( Cant make a screenshot of it)
|
Yeah, same thing happens to me. Times out :o
|
I'm not getting timed out now but getting to this thread probably took 5 minutes,,, And don't say it's my computer PE, PE2K PA are all working uber fast.
Now it's like uber slow. |
apparently some of our ddos'rs are back.. currently hitting us with a bunch of synfloods.. other then that, all is okish. :\
|
Our network security team is currently working on this.. some connections MAY time out or be slow during this process.
|
Well I got a database error earlier tonight, could not get on.
|
should be running better for most of you now.. stay tuned for more updates.

A synflood is a type of DDoS attack. Whenever you visit a web site, your computer sends whats called a "SYN" packet (synchronize). When the server receives this request, it replies with a "SYN-ACK" packet (acknowledged). After the computer that first sent the SYN request receives this SYN-ACK packet, it's supposed to reply to the server with an ACK packet. In a synflood, the attackers purposely do not send the ACK packet. This causes problems, since the server has already allocated memory for the request. I put it as simply as I could, but there may still be parts of it that may confuse people. There's probably even more to it than that. |
Wow,so basicaly people are trying to attack PC?Thats dumb.
|
I couldn't log on due to server problems (as PC put it), but other than that, I had no problems at all since the time it got fixed.
