  You can disable hibernation if it is enabled and you do not...

  When you Hibernate your computer, Windows saves the contents of the system memory in the hiberfil.sys file. As a result, the size of the hiberfil.sys file will always be equal to the amount of physical memory in your system. If you don't use the Hibernate feature and want to reclaim the space used by Windows for the hiberfil.sys file, perform the following steps:

  -Start the Control Panel Power Options applet (go to start, settings, Control Panel, and then click Power Options).
  -Select the Hibernate tab, uncheck "Activate the hibernation", and then click OK. Although you might think otherwise, selecting never under "Hibernate" option on the power management tab does not delete the hiberfil.sys file.
  -Windows remove the "Hibernate" option on the power management tab and delete the hiberfil.sys file.

  You can control the amount of space your system restore can use...

  1. Click Start, right click my computer and then click Properties.
  2. click on the System Restore tab.
  3. highlight one of your readers (or C: If you only) and click on the button "settings".
  4 change the percentage of disk space you want to allow... I suggest moving the slider until you have about 1 GB (1024 MB or close to that...)
  5. click on OK. Then click OK again.

  You can control the amount of space used may or may not temporary Internet files...

  Empty the temporary Internet files and reduce the size, that it stores a size between 64 MB and 128 MB...

  -Open a copy of Microsoft Internet Explorer.
  -Select TOOLS - Internet Options.
  -On the general tab in the section 'Temporary Internet files', follow these steps:
  -Click on 'Delete the Cookies' (click OK)
  -Click on "Settings" and change the "amount of disk space to use: ' something between 64 MB and 128 MB. (There may be many more now.)
  -Click OK.
  -Click on 'Delete files', then select "Delete all offline content" (the box), and then click OK. (If you had a LOT, it can take 2 to 10 minutes or more).
  -Once it's done, click OK, close Internet Explorer, open Internet Explorer.

  Your image Resource Monitor shows the problem that I had in mind. Your system is holding to the memory of the night before and it releases is not memory free . You can force the release by restarting your computer, but often it is not very practical. Another way to force the release of standby memory is available using the RAM (freeware from Microsoft) card:
  http://TechNet.Microsoft.com/en-GB/Sysinternals/ff700229.aspx

  Download and install and create a shortcut on your desktop for RAMMap and / or PIN to the taskbar. When you sense the system becomes unresponsive, use Ctrl + Shift + Esc to access the Task Manager. Click the performance tab and the resource monitor button. Click the memory tab and check if free is close to zero, or is equal to zero. If it is, open RAMMap, click on empty on the menu bar and the empty queue. This action restores instantly free memory.

  The procedure using RAMMap is an effective workaround, but the real solution lies in the discovery of the source of the problem. Know the source, you may be able to solve the problem by contacting the provider of the software and / or update the software.

  The solution lies in the identification of the software which is access to many files, to search for malware or index to facilitate the search of Windows. If you find out which files are accessed unnecessarily you can exclude routine analyses. The first image below illustrates the problem. The second image identifies the folders / files. In the example Microsoft Security Essentials was scan my G drive, which I excluded from future scans.

  Investigate what made up the figure of Eve may not be easy. How I discovered what was the cause of this computer has been reached by following the procedure detailed below.

  RAMMap open when your Standby figure is too high and click on the file summary tab, click the column heading of Eve to sort the numbers as in the image below to determine the really big held in standby mode files, see the image below. If you click the path heading, you can sort and see what partitions are being accessed. It is important to remember that these files have been consulted since the computer was started. You ask then what program could have access to the file and it really need to? Programs with scheduled scans are potential candidates.

  In my case, I found a very large download of Windows 7 that I had used for a repair installation I had not deleted after use. I also found a large number of files on a non-related system partition for backup copies created by Windows backup utility. I decided to see if these have been regularly analyzed by Microsoft Security and them excluded from the analyses. You should also check if you are indexing more than what you need as this will increase the impact of the execution of Windows Search.

• Java program freezes computer

  Hey guys, I'm having a problem with a java program that cause my computer to freeze when I open the program. The computer is running Windows XP. The program I use is the specific work for my work. Really no one else using this program except my business, it is manufactured by our company. Yes, I should ask them what the problem is, but they eventually give a new computer, which is a huge pile of * and end by removing important information and programs on my computer that they will not re - install (programs are locked on their license key that they don't tell anyone) is there a way you guys can help me solve what's happening?

• Disabled the startup now computer programs freezes... Gel n... Gel n!

  I think I've damaged my computer by disabling some necessary startup programs... I am also unable to recover given I've updated System Mechanic and lost my backups. My computer keeps freezing and I'm constantly having to turn it off and on again manually. How can I fix? I tried enabling the start up programs again, however, I think that some of the drivers have been removed. I think this is what causes the problem. Help friends!

  Hello

  "update of System Mechanic and lost my backups.

  Not sure what are the other losses that this was the case.

  You should never use Registry cleaners. They can do more damage than any good they claim to be able to do.

  As you now no restore point?, I suggest that you:

  1. remove / uninstall Registry Mechanic:

  2 borrow a Microsoft Vista DVD from a friend or a work acquantice (not the manufacturer of Recovery DVD) and do a upgrade Vista repair install:

• My laptop freezes and programs stop responding

  Recently, my laptop started crashing often and blocks all programs that I use. All is well again after about 10 minutes, but moments later, it crashes again. This continues until I have possibly restart the computer and then some time after the computer has restarted, it starts happening again. (by accident I mean everything except the cursor freezes) I don't play games on it but my brother very occasionally time games like the sims and fifa manager. I also noticed that I am almost always on the internet when it happens as I do a lot of streaming. I checked the Task Manager when this happens and use disk and memory seem to be fine and not affected by the accident. the laptop is only about a year and we got an extra 4 GB RAM put, so there now 8GB (not sure if it matters but I saw it mentioned on a different thread then thought, it may be of significance). Although I am almost always on the computer I have a very basic understanding of the more technical aspects, so please, be specific and answer as simply as possible.

  (REF: this may sound weird but I noticed that the laptop works very silently (especially at startup) and it does not seem that something works in the laptop itself, so I think there may one real hardware components does not, but I have not had the opportunity to open up the laptop and see, is maybe nothing, but just if I should mention it).

  For the duration of four months prior to the upgrade of Windows 8 pro, I never had this problem with Windows 7.

• Programs freeze with Fusion 2.0.5 and XP sp2

  Hi-

  Similar to a previous post re: Dragon, I constantly have a problem with several freezing programs ("not responding") whenever I run them in XP sp2 in Fusion 2.0.5 (using Mac OS X v 10.5.7) the only way to get out of it is to force stop merger. My feeling is that it is a Windows problem, but no physical evidence. Programs that freeze include Quickbooks 2009, Sound Forge. Everything works SLOW. When you try to stop the merger, I get an error message that a script has failed.

  I think I want to completely get rid of the merger, XP and all responsible for programs on a virtual computer and do a clean install on the whole. Question - if I use the application to uninstall in Fusion, it get rid of all the associated programs and recover disk space?

  This file is the entire virtual machine.  By deleting this file, you delete all that it contains, including all programs.  When this file is gone, there will be no trace of your VM of windows on your computer.  Although, as I said just make sure to save all the files you want.
