Lag Issues

[Angelus]

Hello! i am having some problems with lag while playing an online game
Ragnarok Online. Recently i had to wipe the system due to a corrupt DLL file.
When i was playing the game prior to the wipe it ran flawlessly no networking
lag whatsoever. And now with the new clean install of Vista Home Basic 32bit
there is a slight annoying lag. I have tried the netsh networking tweaks and
none of them seemed to help. If you have any ideas of what the problem is i
would apreciate it. I normally use a Netgear Wg311t network card, and when
the lag started i moved my pc downstairs and pugged it directly into the
modem and still the lag persists. I called my ISP and they said that there
were no problems in my area.

Generic System Specs
Nvidia 8800GTS
2GB 800mhz ram
Intel C2D E6600
MSI P6N Sli-Fi 650i mother board
Windows Vista Home Basic 32Bit

I just tested it with other online games, same thing lots of lag. But
downloading is super fast and browsing web pages is super fast, I've narrowed
it down to something to do with the OS. Please Help!

When you reinstalled vista, did you go to the Graphics Manufacruters website
and download the latest Video drivers?

Don't get them through windows Update.
