If you are relying on background updating while playing or sitting at the log-in screen, expect it to be slow.

Keeping the following shortcut available to force a complete update solve the problem mentioned above.

"C:\Program Files\Guild Wars\Gw.exe" -image


Older PC's with lower RAM may be a little slower when it comes to decompressing and "digesting" a large update into a large DAT.
