What is the CPU and how much RAM does your computer have? Right click on
the My Computer icon on your Desktop and select Properties to get this
information.
Try Ctrl+Alt+Delete to select Task Manager and click the Performance
Tab. Under Commit Charge what is the Total, the Limit and the Peak?
Have a look in the System and Application logs in Event Viewer for
Errors and Warnings and post copies here. Don't post any more than 48
hours ago.
You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Control Panel,
Administrative Tools, and Event Viewer. When researching the meaning
of the error, information regarding Event ID, Source and Description
are important.

A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double
click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a
button resembling two pages. Click the button and close Event
Viewer.Now start your message (email) and do a paste into the body of
the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting from
Event Viewer.

Hi,
I recently reached a near-full HD episode in my XP and things became
terribly slow.
Besides freeing 3/4s of the space, I've defragmented it, scandisk-ed
it (find & fix errors auto), run full virus/spyware checks (with AVG &
SUPERAntiSpyware) and also cleaned everything with disk cleanup, plus
cleaned the registry (with EasyCleaner & Advanced SystemCare).., and
switched to a less slick appearance.
The PC relatively recovered some speed but windows explorer takes its
time loading any folder type - not just image/videos folders - even
txt files-only folders.
Does anyone have any idea what this twit PC still wants from me? )
It's really annoying to wait every single folder you open to not load
normally. I've searched the net for an answer but only find silly
unsolving tips like turning off thumbnail cache, which makes no
difference whatsoever ever ever.
THanks 4 hearing me out.  |
