uhhh posting your rig may HELP?
Hmm 2Ghz P4
512 ram
60 gb HD
Geforce 5200 128 MB
:blink:
Press CTRL + ALT + DEL, and click the performance tab. How much CPU is being used? Make sure there isn't something running in the backround using 100% CPU, slowing you down.
Well, system idle process uses alot of fuckin cpu like 66-94 % thats about all i can see.:huh:
System Idle Process is just a named representation of what's not being used by other resources. If it's not at 99% when you're doing nothing, the find out what's using the rest of it.Quote:

2 things will definitly help you here:
1) use normal sized letters when you post, this is just to damn annoying
2) windows need a complete reinstall every now and then......... that is, unless you feel like cleaning up everything (like the registry) yourself........ if you do feel like it, chances are you'll fuck something up and have to reinstall anyway :P (unless you really know your way around the registry)
Reboot! JK . Try something like windoctor or system mech.

Yes, Windows needs a complete re-install every couple of years or so. Anyone that tells you it needs it sooner either installs too much crap or doesn't know what they're doing.Quote:

XP is a big improvement over say 98 btw........

3. Is your case clean? Maybe some static discharge from dust. maybe not..
4. Did you do any modding lately?
5. Maybe you dont have enough powersupply and the system is running borderline (heh would black out from heavy loading tho)
6. Obviously something is eatin that performance.. this may sound silly, but maybe a one of your betraying buddies attached a little "distrubuted computing" device to your pc and it's suckin that cpu from time to time for pure annoyance..since it wouldnt speed his computer up any.
Ive OC'd my vid card thats about it.:blink:

Well people have given you lots of ideas and asked a few questions time to try\reply to them.
well ive turned off overclocking (on the vid card) and used crap cleaner it sorta helped... :blink: thats about all i can tell ya;)
Well what makes you think it's slow anyway...a certain game? just doing stuff is slow? explain when it seems to be slow and tell us an approximate guess of the time it takes for something or the fps in games or whatever.
I dont know about the fps but startup is hella slow and for somereason bootvis doesent seem to be working:blink: and just doing stuff is quite slow.
How slow is statup...how long does it take, at what point does it seem to take teh longest (what is on the screen at the time) and how much hard drive activity is going on.
I dont know that information sir. just like ladong up nav and at the welcome screen it takes along time to load up. is there any other apps besides bootvis for a faster startup?:huh:
bleh, just do a reformat ;\
Fuck no its a pain in the fuckin ass and takes forever.
what is the speed of your hard drive,an RAM.That may be keeping your computer slow.If anything,have you checked what processes start up at boot time.Try deleting the entries that you dont need any more,to programs that dont exist or just arent fucking amazing anymore.
LoL ya i think my harddrive is 7200 RPM its a Western Digital Cavair. 512 ram that is shit all. This comp needs new ram but my mobo licks cock so yea:dry:
stop posting in such a small fucking font - those of us using high resolutions can't fucking read it.Quote:
