Whenever I access my Belt Pouch or Bag in inventory, it freezes for a couple seconds before I can actually click on anything. Why does it do that? it's fine for my Backpack. It "lags" if it's empty or not.

Specs:
Intel Pentium 4E 3GHZ
ASUS P4P800S
nVidia FX5200
512MB RAM

I tried turning all my settings to as low as possible and it still does it.

Are you running any firewalls and what Modem/ROuter do you have?

Also, have you checked all possible threads and Stickies on this website, as I believe there was another post about this exact same thing only in the past couple of days.

I'm running Sygate Personal Firewall Pro. My modem is a Motorola SB5100. No router.

I'll check the threads right now.

Well, I found one thread on it so far.

Unfortunately it wasn't solved.

Iv been having the exact same problem, if you just want to get to your inventory use F9, helps for me.

I'd also like to note my character (In the inventory) sometimes glitches up as well after it freezes.

Edit: It only freezes when the game is in full-screen, not windowed. It only stutters whenever it's set at windowed.

Two things you could try to see if it's a File glitch in the GW folder.

First thing. There are some GW.TMP files located in the Guild Wars Folder and the Windows/Prefetch folder. Copy these to another directory location, and then delete these files. Then rerun Guildwars and see if this resolves anything.

SOmeone on a thread here, did a clean up with a CLeaning program and this was one of the files deleted and all his problems went away.

If this doesn't work, then completely uninstall Guildwars, if you are capable, then delete any entries in the Registry related to Guildwars in case of a corrupt Reg entry, and then reboot the machine and reinstall Guildwars.

Other than that, I would suggest a Support case to Guild Wars support and see if they have a fix or solution you can try.

Other than reinstall of WIndows, drivers for hardware etc and checking your Firewall settings and Mobo Bios options, you could always try logging into another PC and try from there.

Whenever I delete the GW.TMP file, I don't get the problem. Only after playing it for awhile does it occur again.
