Well, depending on if you have any other programs running that take up memory and CPU space, such as yahoo messenger which takes a FAWKLOAD up lol, that could be a problem...

now onto the q about could it be your memory, YES it could, if you could give me the makers of it i could tell you, best makers of ram are: mushkin, kingston, and corsair (XMS series if you can afford that shat )

now then, ive discovered a gig of ram is PERFECT for running guild wars.

LASTLY, do you know what speed your ram runs at? if its 2700 upgrade and get two [email protected] with low timings, and you wont have ANY lag lol, and i can guarantee it, hope this answered your questions!
