    That's 34°C so that's ok.

    Your slowdown must be something else.

    update ur antivirus scanner and do a search for virus's. If you dont have an antivirus scanner I recomend AVG antivirus. search google and you will find it.

    next update ur anti-spyware program and do a search for spyware. If you dont have a spyware program i recomend spysweeper. You can find hte full version on kazaa.

    Last go to start>run>type 'msconfig' and press enter>startup tab>disable any programs that you dont need to startup with windows.

    good luck.

    Maybe you need to reinstall your OS.

    ur running a gfFX 5700

    see if vsync is on and kill it. it almost always solves these issues.

    or you can disable the 8x fsaa u prolly have enabled





    i didnt bother reading the whole topic so if any of this was already given then STFU!!!

    It could just be your pc/windows running like shit.Have a good clean,reg ,defrag blah.Turn the unneed services off through control panel,admin tools instead of msconfig.

    Christ, it looks like it won't be long before someone suggests re-installing Windows because a printer's out of paper.
