No Lag anymore

I used to get a lot of lag. Totally unplayable if on a busy server and especially on things like flag captures or lots of people on cannons. I managed to finally stop getting any lag at all.

BUT

I had to run:

64 Bit Vista with 4 GB of RAM
512 MB graphics card (not integrated)
7200 RPM or faster drive
Any decent processor
Turned off all extraneous start up programs
Turned off anti virus (while playing POTCO)
Turned off Windows system restore for my drive
Turned off any OEM restore

Beyond buying a server, running 64 Bit Vista lets you finally use 4 or more GB of RAM
