hi , has anyone encountered the above with hm2? When I open tables at 888 with hm2 switched on,the table windows start to lag immediately and run very slowly. Once i turn off hm2 everything works fine. What to do?

Two radical variants come to mind: buy Pokertracker 4 (it's lighter) or upgrade the computer with an extra RAM module. HM2 is known to be extremely heavy on the RAM :f_cry:

But before those, try launching the poker client always before HM2. I'm not a specialist as to the 888 network (have never played there), but fwiw, when I launch my Ladbrokes client when PT4 is already running, the client's windows don't show up, it only appears as a process, which I have to kill by the Task Manager to restart the client; that's also the case for clients of other iPoker skins afaik.

Hi guys, thanks for the replies. I do have 4 gb ram and the funny thing is that there is no problem when using hm2 on the i poker network ( william hill, bet 365). Does it make any sense?

cheers

This can happen if you have a wrong auto-import configuration of handhistory and archive folders in the HM2 site setup or if you use a faulty hud.
Please try a different hud and if this doesn't help please post your auto-import settings or send us the log file as explained in this FAQ (please add a link to this thread): http://hm2faq.holdemmanager.com/questions/1921/How+Do+I+Send+a+Log+File+to+Holdem+Manager+Support%3F

hmm who knows, but i guess try to use new hud - make it! firstly small and simple and check how it goes with lagging issues.

With faulty hud i mean a Hud which contains invalid stats or for example very complicate NC stats which need a lot of calculations.
AlvisR explained it very good how to figure this out.
