SAMP Framerate will randomly lag.

[Chase]

Every now and then I will be on SAMP and the framerate will go down horribly, like lagging. It is doing this in all SAMP servers I join, and never has done it before! Halp?

Hmm, The only think I can think of is either turn off Itunes or Msn Messenger and temporarily turn down the resolution to 840-- atleast. See if that works.

i have this to, could be occured by any other process in your task manager or any mods installed.

[Chase]

Its fixed. All it took was a simple restart of my pc.

[Chase]

Crap, now its doing it again...

It is most probably a process running on your PC that lags the game. Could even be the anti-virus program regularly scanning the disk or connection.

If you are able to you can get your firewall/anti-virus into game mode or close it while playing. BUT it might open some security holes. Make sure you are not running any other programs. Also if it continues put your anti-virus back on fastly :P I am not responsible if something bad happens Also you can try to pretend scanning of the game somehow like letting samp.exe and gta_sa.exe to use internet without scanning.

Maybe your HDD is fragmented?

Turn on disk defragmentation before you go to bed.
