Merrry Christmas Everyone!
So I got myself a ASUS ROG which can be seen here: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834232202
Now here I am on my spiffy new machine and I can't get UO to work... It opens and I can login but when I try moving it's two steps then freeze. Two steps, freeze. Unplayable :-(
I've uninstalled and re-installed. Updated all my drivers and I can't figure it out. About to be back to the 2010 Core I5.
Any suggestions?

Have you tried the usual suspects like run as admininstrator, and run in a compatibility mode for something other than Windows Ick?

Yea. Run as admin, run compatibility win7, vista etc... Nothing.
Wife's like why doesn't it work isn't this like a good laptop?... I'm like well the game is from 1997.
I "googled" all morning and only thing I found was someone with a similar issue and it was their sound card but mine's saying everything is "up to date".

I don't think I even have UO running on my 8.1 box. It's been collecting dust right after I barfed on it from 8.1 "ick" effect. :)

Yea I think I'm just going to return the laptop tbh... $1,500.00 and can't play the only game I want it to...
Thanks for checking in on this though and happy holidays!

I feel like it's some driver or setting that I just don't know how/or what to adjust... I'm a simple guy haha.
The machine itself is something to behold!!!

I am running win 8.1 and have no problems at all. Choppy and laggy sounds like video card or internet card issues.

Thats true. Have you tried to disable all your firewall and virus stuff temporarily?

Gentlemen, the problem has been resolved! McCaffe firewall wasn't about me playing Ultima Online. I uninstalled it and gave it permission through windows firewall and tadaaa just like that!!!
Thank you all for stopping in to offer assistance ;D
Best UO community I've ever been a part of!

That's great, Cass! I'm still a firm believer that the anti-virus companies are the ones writing the viruses. Nothing like a self-fulfilling prophecy or a self-milking cow to build a business model after!
MOO!!
