When playing Pogo games, I play card games (bridge). I play for about 2 minutes and the games crashes. I was told to perform a DNS Flush. How do I do that?

    Hi Sallie,

    As i understand from your post you want to flush dns, click start -> Run & Type  ->  ipconfig /flushdns -> Click ok.

    To release IP address you can type (in Start -> Run)->

    ipconfig /release_all 

    or

    ipconfig /release

    To Renew IP address:

    ipconfig /renew

    Other way to release and renew ip address is Click on Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Network Connections -> Right Click Local Area Connection and select repair (This will release and renew your ip address).

    Hope this helps.
