PC Update Problems? : FFXI General Discussions

I dunno if it is just me, but my PC lags to the point that rebooting is a must whenever I update POL. I have no clue why, I was just curious as to if anyone experiences this. It happens on my computer as well as my gf's laptop.

not for me

Yea it lagged me pretty bad when downloading the update. Has done that the last few times, if you wait a few minutes it should come back.

Yeah, I let it run. My gf just got aggrovated with it and made me fix it. I was just wondering if its just a simple solution or if she's gonna have to grind her teeth and do nothing til the update is done.

Doesn't usually take more than 2 minutes for mine to unfreeze.

it does that to me when im only updating with windower, soo if i know theres an update, i just open up FFXI normally and its instantly updated in just seconds/minutes.

She doesn't use windower.

Happens to mine too, what i think it is its when POL is checking all of the .dat files to see what you need. It freezes my computer baaad.
