I went to the Intel website and downloaded the latest chipset drivers for my motherboard and the network card driver on the intel site (which is actually an earlier version than directly from realtek). I installed both of those and things seem to be working much better. http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect/?iid=dc_iduu Obviously won't help if you have an amd processor, but maybe there are updated chipset drivers for you guys too? Hope this helps. | ||

We've got a good way to diagnose this particular problem, it'd be nice to have a surefire solution as well. | ||

I have a tournament coming up on saturday and my brother has offered me to buy his old computer off of him for cheap (mine is on it's last legs anyway) so I may just take over that instead and get W7 on it. | ||

I am on Win7 64-bit. My motherboard is an Asus P6T but the drivers from Asus were quite old, older than the ones from the intel site. If you have an intel processor you could still check and see if you can find your motherboard in the site above, or if it's an amd processor they might have something similar? I don't know. I don't have much experience with USB wireless recievers for the internet. Are you able to circumvent the connection? Like do a cable connect to the modem directly, just to test? Or does your modem wirelessly connect to the net? | ||

sometimes 1-2 seconds and sometimes 10 secs -_- but anyways i definitely think it's a network issue for me at least as it only occurs in multiplayer | ||

Every 6 months dudes... love it or hate it its the best and only way to keep your pc running consistently. You wouldn't skip going to mechanic if your car was misfiring. Bite the bullet and reformat and clean your fans. Rolling back drivers, and all that jazz is just a waste of time. | ||

Eventually, I switched over to my brother's old computer (needed an upgrade anyway). only thing that I put in it from my old computer was my old harddrive (I did not use this to run starcraft on this new computer) and I STILL had this problem. Funny thing is that my brother ran this exact setup a few months ago and did not have the sc2 freezes. Anyway, then I tried replacing my wireless reciever with a different model. Bam. Solved. I get sometimes a VERY tiny frame skip but its almost unnoticeable now. Really weird, but I'm happy. | ||

Anyway, then I tried replacing my wireless reciever with a different model. Bam. Solved Mine used to do the same thing and i stopped using router(even wired in) and plugged straight in to modem.Cured it instantly. I went to the Intel website and downloaded the latest chipset drivers for my motherboard and the network card driver on the intel site (which is actually an earlier version than directly from realtek). I installed both of those and things seem to be working much better. I finally figured it out last night, my ethernet drivers were out of date. Once I updated those the skipping stopped and now happens maybe once a game, but that happened on my old PC too. Ok - so I think it's safe to say that if you are experiencing this stutter in multiplayer but not in singleplayer, it is a network issue of some kind. Your best bet is looking at your networking - either cutting out or replacing things like routers or wireless connections or updating drivers on anything internet or network related. Hope this helps anyone still with the problem. | ||

it worked for me, some ppl in my team and some ppl from another forum too. it does although not work for everyone... i also have to add i wasn't the one who found it out! i just got told and it works for me after i changed it... originally i got told to turn of the whole sound and it worked from there on fine but i wasn't really happy with that, as you can imagine. here his op: i had this lagspikes and stuff especially when i had apm-intensive moments or when the game had apm intensive phases. checked my hardware, drivers, other software, space on harddisk, internet connection...EVERYTHING! i also have to add that i had no problem before 1.3 came out... what was new with 1.3 are the unit responses. they way their sound output works after a click got changed. the thing is that the more units (also buildings and stuff have a responses) you click, the more units respond and since 1.3 they start immediately with the new clicked one. the key here is that even though the response gets cut off as soon as you click another one but it still runs in the background. and with the way bnet works this effects not only the one who clicks the units but all in the game. however the solution is as simple as the problem: uncheck the "unit response" in the sound options. should be the 2nd last point on the left side of the sound properties .as i said, it doesn't work for everyone but it might help some ppl here. it's also not really an elegant way to solve it but hey..as long as it works + Show Spoiler [btw...is that really true?] + "and with the way bnet works this effects not only the one who clicks the units but all in the game" - i still don't really believe that | ||
