Need to ID which program is kicking me out of the game

Back in the day Skuzzy once said that he'd rather get a proper virus into his PC than McAfee or Norton...

Driver Easy and others of that ilk are totally unnecessary. Basically you'd only need to update a driver when there's a problem. Often - or at least that's how it used to be - such programs offer updates that may not even be for your particular devices! That reminds me of my ancient sound card which didn't work any longer as supposed. It appeared that there was a driver update for a model carrying the same name/number. Finally found it in India, downloaded and force installed. Did it unleash the desired properties? Sort of. Was it stable? Hell no! The fancy drivers weren't meant for the sub-model sold here.

Yeah! This was disheartening.  Eh..it was free with my ASUS PC. MCAFEE that is.  My 2 prior PCs...anti virus what?     I didnt use any, other than what Windows Defender could do. Latest PC....was pricey and MCAFEE was free...why not?  Yeah....wont be renewing.  Driver Easy however seems to have helped. I have received "Something went wrong" notifications for NVIDIA updates...through the Nvidia Web Site..last 5 or 6. With Driver Easy, no such issues, and card was updated to current model. I sure as heck ain't gonna argue with you about it! You haven't steered me wrong yet

 am having frequent disconnects too.  I did a ping plot.  Just as the next hop enters texas, there is a huge packet loss.

Mine isnt a disco, mine just drops me to the desktop. I click the AH icon on the task bar and Im back in. I havent had time to try and track this down yet. Luckily its just a second dropping to desktop and click back in so it only annoying.

Same exact issue I had. I haven’t gotten these since I made system tweaks. Problem is I don’t know exactly what tweak fixed it. I don’t think it was connection or graphic tweaks, that narrows it down a little to the tweaks on top in my page. I do **suspect** removing Game Bar, but no proof. Point, hasn’t happened since my tweaks <shrug>

Problem is, its very intermittent to catch without a log monitoring app.
