Zyuu, what's the hard drive you are running fraps in? Low speed hard drives affect fraps writting a lot, so does if you have a lot of activity on them while frapsing. I, thanks to some tips in this forum, purchased a fast HD (western digital raptor 10000RPM) just to run games and fraps, and to renderize 3d/encode videos and I noticed a huge difference in performance, the writting speed of that HD doesn't slow down my computer at all.

And Livvy, what kind of lag are you having?

There are 3 kind of lags i know of:

1) Graphic lag: Due to computer specs, your screen blocks for a moment completely, you can't see people moving and your char is stuck in the same position as where your lag started.

2) Upload lag: You see everyone moving normally, but you just can't, that's cause your upload speeds can't let you send packets at the required time.

3) Download lag: nobody moves, server won't send you packets, but the charks keep making the basic animations like breathing, trees moving, etc.

If someone doesn't lag in that game, the problem is yours. It would be your computer for option 1 or your ISP for options 2 and 3.
