Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted. Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender. Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration. The Rules 1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed.

Please choose the correct section for your problem. 7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required. 8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning. 9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online. 10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents. 11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban. 13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts. 14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. 15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues. Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis. Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community. |

 I was also able to run limewire on my system. Maybe try downgrading to JRE 1.4.2? Also, make sure you have AA and AF turned off in your video drivers. I saw somewhere that they cause problems on some video cards with limewire  |

| hey all, Just a note to let you know, I have fixed it on my PC. The problem did indeed turn out to be that I had Antialiasing and Anisotropic Filtering turned on the the video driver. Check your driver and make sure they are set to 'Application Controlled' The setting is under 'Quality and Performance Settings' under advanced in display properties settings tab. To make that easier to follow, Right click desktop, choose properties. Select the settings tab at the top go to advanced. In the new box, choose the tab labelled with your video card. The tab should also have the nVidia logo on it. When you click this tab, a menu will pop out to the left. On this menu, choose 'Performance and Quality settings', and you should see 'Antialiasing settings' and 'Anisotropic Filtering' in the lower half of the dialog box. Good luck all  |

| I have an Athlon XP not a 64 chip... I checked the anti-aliasing and filtering settings and they are set so the application determines the settings. So much for that option! I guess I'll just have to run it on my laptop which is running Ubuntu... |

| OK, assuming that the Graphics card is not the problem, there seems to be a general consensus of downgrading your Java VM to 1.4.2 That means uninstall Java, reboot, then download the JRE 1.4.2 from Sun's Java Site Give that a go, and report back Cheers, Chard Edit: Also, if either of these methods do work, please post back here and say which one. Thats how forums work best |

| Booman You games might be changing you graphics card settings I know from personal experience. The 64 bit chip has nothing to do with it I run a 64 and on C:drive I run XP Pro on D:drive I run XP 64 limewire work great on both. Best guess it is a graphics issue the link below may help. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...threadid=39600 If that doesn't do it post back it is possible you have a bad Java install. AMD 64 3200+ OC 2.3Gh/z EVGA e-Force NVidia 6200 ASUS A8N Deluxe 4 - corsair 512 registered 2GB 2 - Fujitsu 74GB Ultra 320 15K RPM SCSI 0-RAID 1 - WD 120GB C:/ Windows XP PRO D:/ Windows XP64 Beta

| I wouldn't be so quick to rule out the AMD x64 chip as being a contributing factor. It seems that everyone here is using an AMD chip, and the majority are x64 based. Maybe x64 combined with advanced video cards is causing problems. This issue does seem to be exclusive to AMD cpus. I too run XP x64 OEM on annother hdd on this system, but hardly ever use it becuse I dont have any antivirus for it yet. The fact that your using an x64 chip with no problem doesn't rule it out as a contributer to the problem, just means you dont have the other contributers. Thanks for the link though, seems to be the same solution as previously mentioned here for ATi based cards. Booman: under the processes tab in Task manager (Cant remember if this works in XP Home) check to see if limewire.exe is using some huge amount of your cpu. If not, I would suggest that your problem is not the same as the others here. If it is, recheck your display drivers. Your system is so uncannily like mine, that I would be very suprised if it was a different cause. fingers crossed, Chard |

| achard I believe you are wrong there I actuall run 3 AMD 64 CPU and 1 Intel and none of them have problems related to the CPU but both AMD and Intel have had the graphic card issue.
