Everyone knows about the DC monster, as they call it. He comes and spoils your fun, making you waste 3 minutes of your vmk playing time to sign back in and possible lose progress in whatever you were doing. Heres some ways to prevent that stupid dc monster from attacking you.
-Note these tips are mainly for people who are getting on vmk for credits for halloween. These tips are not meant for people getting on just to chat with friends etr. however they might still help-
1. Some say vmkpal has helped them not dc. Well its been the opposite for me, not only do my minigames run faster and smoother in my regular server (firefox) but i do not dc as much.
2. Make sure no other programs are running while playing vmk. I've often tried to play vmk with AIM and Itunes running in the background. Well let me tell you. You CAN NOT i repeat CAN NOT do this. Your computer can not handle running such big programs all at once. Exit out of them completely.
3. One way to speed up the way it runs is to hit ctrl alt delete, click on the processes tab, and find (depending on what your running on) VMKpal, firefox, internet explorer, netscape whatever. Right click on the process, and look for where it says change/set priority. Right now the priority should be on normal, which means all programs are equal. Change it to High, and your computer will focus more on running VMK than any other background programs its secretly running.
4. Get some background on your computers hook up. If your computer is wirelessly connected to the internet your going to run a little slower simply because your connection is slower. If you have dial up, im sorry for you but you will be getting dc faster than i can say dc. If you are directly connected to the internet through your wall or whatever, youll be faster.
5. Dont talk unless needed. If your on to get credits, your on to get credits, you shouldnt need to go up to some random person and start chattin there ear off. You will find it easier to go through vmk if you dont talk a lot.
6. Have fun, do what you need to do, and get those credits before halloween. Forget the dc monster and lock him in a cage!
