Re-install Sucks
« on: July 19, 2010, 07:51:02 PM »
So I log out earlier as my game is hanging, stuttering and generally glitching to hell (nothing else going on on my system so had to be a problem with WoW).

Restart PC. Log back in and its even happening on login - taking ages to load, stuttering on char selection etc.

So use repair tool and it basically does fuck all.  So now Im redownloading the game (moved all my addons out of the way so i dont go thru that nonsense again) and reinstalling.

Once you got your fresh install, copy it to an external disk.
Then you can just move that folder to your users\mangalapeosvirbeosvir\games folder and have your game freshly installed in a matter of minutes ;)

Maybe you were just skipping forward in time by half-second increments. A more common problem than you'd think.

"Banking was conceived in iniquity and was born in sin. The bankers own the earth. Take it away from them, but leave them the power to create money, and with the flick of the pen they will create enough deposits to buy it back again. However, take away from them the power to create money and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to remain the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create money." Josiah Stamp (Governor Bank of England 1928-41)
