General Help Slow To Load
« on: September 02, 2003, 05:58:33 PM »
When I'm on line in Aces High, General Help takes a long time to load.  It used to load fairly quickly.  Once the General Help screen comes up, accessing everything else is fine.

Is this an Aces High issue or something amiss in my computer?

Tonight it loaded fast again.  Sometimes it doesn't.  Oh well, hope the occasional long slow loads were merely an aberration and not a characteristic.

Thanks, Hap.  I was referring to the General Help that gets to the Aces community and bulletin board.  Excellent tip, though -- I hadn't used that Windows button before.

AH uses a ton of system resources...

Everything else may run slow when AH is running...
