Re: Long loading times making online play impossible

My last ditch effort in an attempt to get it to work then in out of ideas.

Lots of small programs interfere with Squadrons. Minimize your startup list with only essentials and see if there is any change.

Ctrl + Alt + Del -> Startup tab

Disable anything non crucial like update services etc.

Reboot

Ctrl + Alt + Del again and pinpoint anything else you may be able to shut down.

Could also run msconfig (Start menu ‐> type msconfig -> enter) and check services and disable ones you dont feel are needed.

Along with this you could also try unplugging any unnecessary usb accessories, disable secondary monitors. Restart. Cross fingers.

Other than that I'm sadly all out of ideas. If I have time later I'll try to do a deeper dive into your dxdiag and see if anything major strikes me.

Good luck to you and hopefully something comes from this
