If you're still having issues... I have run into this issue before, after migrating to a new system drive. Try right-clicking on the shortcut, select "run as administrator", and accept the UAC dialog. If you are able to get into game, then it would most likely be a folder permissions issue that would need to be fixed.

Yup, that's what I figured you were talking about. It's a MoCA filter. Sometimes they help, sometimes not so much, lol. Does it feel like it's helped so far?

He's suggesting you do like in this picture With one of these: Amazon.com: Hondark 5pcs Black 13mm Ferrite Clip Filter Noise Reduction Core : Industrial & Scientific I assume, the filter thing you were talking about in previous post is one of these, or similar?

Your downstream looks great, your upstream power looks to be on the lower end. For reference: Lower than 35dBmv is where major issues happen. Lower than 38dBmv is where possible packet loss/instability happens. Higher than 53dBmv possible packet loss/instability. Higher than 57dBmv major issues. Ideal upstream power is between 45-50dBmv. Ideal downstream power is between -8dBmv and +8dBmv (closer to 0 is better). Ideal for downstream SNR is anything above 30dB (best ~40-45dB) Without getting too technical... The upstream power is controlled by Comcast's equipment when negotiating with your modem. However, if there is a lot of noise on the line, you can get issues at lower upstream levels. Congested nodes will likely want client modems to be talking quieter, to reduce overall noise, which may be why your power is on the low end. You could call comcast support and have a tech come and diagnose the line. Tell them you are experiencing lag/stuttering when playing games, or the like. They may also remotely adjust your upstream power. You could also try (but don't hold your breath) adding a coax splitter between the wall and modem to "trick" it to negotiate a higher upstream power, it will also negatively affect your downstream levels. Good thing is that your downstream power is excellent, so you have a bit of wiggle room there. The best fix would be that Comcast increases your modem's upstream power (whether it be by power adjustments, line repair, or node repair). Personally, I would add the splitter, check signal levels ~15-30min after modem boot, if all levels within spec, then monitor signal levels/quality over several days. If signal levels are way off, check again in another 15min, if still bad then remove splitter and call comcast.

On that note, you would need to refresh the display of your signal levels periodically to get a better picture of them changing since it's only a snapshot of "right now". For example, during peak periods they may be too low and you need an amp. Or during peak periods they are normal, but off-peak they are too high. For that you would just have to add a splitter to attenuate the signal a little bit.

Comcast/consumer routers are typically simplistic in configurations. Not much you can do wrong, lol. Basically plug-n-play. I would suspect that your cable signal levels are off somehow. On either upstream and/or downstream too high or too low power levels can have adverse effects on your connection quality. You may be able to get speed, but have issues with stability or packet loss. This is something I have dealt with in the past. If you're able, take a screenshot of your modem's cable signal levels and post here. Should look similar to the attached image. Should be able to access the admin web page by navigating to "http://<your gateway address>" (ex: http://192.168.1.1 ). user/password will be on the modem's info label (same place as your default wi-fi password).

Are you running bios version 7D75v1N (or at least 7D75v1M3)? And have chipset version 7.01.08.129 installed? Also, what brand/model of RAM do you have? And CPU, lol

G-sync/FreeSync enabled, correct? That ‘should’ lock your monitors refresh rate to your fps. You could also try to enable vertical sync in your graphics card app, or “sync every frame” in CoD4…although that may cause other issues…generally advised not to turn those 2 on…

That is definitely weird...sounds like something external at that point...or you're very unlucky... /cg_drawfps 1 shows 200fps while playing in-game and you've capped the framerate using /com_maxfps 180? or does your monitor have a framerate counter overlay?

you didn't mention hard drive...just forgot?

How about everything all at once? lol

Damn, I'm running out of ideas...I assume that you reset your bios to default, and you still had the issue

Hmmmm...some mobos that have a ssd slot near the CPU(that if used) will reduce the Primary graphics slot from a x16 to a x8 slot....this was primarily on the (x)690 chipset...at least with intel...not sure about AMD. Kind of obscure, but that may be your issue?

Maybe the issue is you, LMAO. Have you got Resizable BAR(nvidia) or Smart Access Memory(AMD) enabled in your bios?

That has fixed several issues for me that were just weird, lol
