Extreme lag

[smashcamelot]

Hi everybody!
I have a problem while playing DAoC. I bought it today and when i came home, installed it and tried it I had a severe lag... maybe 4-10 fps and I cant move, it is so laggy.
I have a 1333mhz, 512 ram, GeForce1. I played beta with the same computer and it went very smooth. I have tried all graphics mode and all resolutions. The sky is also very ditherered, like small dots, maybe it should be like that. But what can I do about the lag?

I have updated driver, installed 8.1, updated via 4in1. How come i lag like hell, 4 fps, when i played beta smoooth !! with lots of fps...

Please help me, what can I do... any other options u can setup?

/Thanks in advance...

have u got any other programs running in the background?
these can cause lag
switch off virus programs etc
firewalls can cause problems too
