CPU Id - and other equipment identifiers

Hello.

Recently, I started using Vmware Workstation. My goal was to imitate several computers, but requiring space and power consumption of one.

I noticed, using the "Hardware Id of Extraction" program has downloaded from the internet, only the CPU ID of my VM is the same.

I'm afraid that could finally identify as being the same computer, which would go to my purpose, which is once again, having 4 totally different machines in the space of one.

Anyone know of a way, or a program, to change this number?

I would also like to ask if there are any other identifier that knowledge you, the community, which may be a problem.

Thank you in advance.

Some possibilities include the UUID in the SMBIOS and MAC address of the card.

    Hello

    You should not select updates for 3rd party material well Windows Update.

    For the 3rd group of hardware drivers, you can get them from the Web site of the computer manufacturer, or the manufacturer of the particular material.

    Microsoft is known for not having the latest drivers available for material from other manufacturers, Microsoft relies on the manufacturer to provide.

  • CS5: CUDA, CPU and other hardware issues

    CS5 can gain a lot of speed with technology CUDA from Nvidia; I guess all of you who have studied a little knows.

    However, I like the very specific information to get the best decision for a new investment.

    I need to get two new CS5 identical systems, which are much faster and not as buggy like my last system of CS4.

    I have about 30,000 euro for 2 machines.

    Our studio requires SDI connections, so I got a Matrox Axio.

    Currently, my system has a lot of problems with the Premiere and After Effects:

    -Field swaps

    -Incompatible effect parameters

    -Very slow rendering

    -Very slow app Startups

    -Multi work slowdowns

    -Crashes of applications

    -Very slow UI operations

    1 CS5 uses only the supported of CUDA cards CUDA?

    2 what is SLI or multi-tech graphics, help CS5 speed at all?

    3. is it useful to get a Tesla beside a Quadro 5800 or if she is not seen by CS5?

    4. which processor is best suited for an After Effects render: iX or Xeon architecture?

    5 adobe uses really only 3 GB by heart, which means that you should not buy more than 3 GB / processor? What is per-THREAD and I should get more RAM?

    6 speed or comp: is it better to focus on the speed very high total base, or the optimal distribution of RAM by getting as many hearts as possible?

    7. can I a Matrox MXO2 Rack unit, cooperate with the power of Nvidia CUDA or likely to hinder the two accelerations/technologies eachother?

    8. is it better to get Nvidia SDI connectivity or y at - it an alternative backup?

    9 iX possible CPU double or is this a Xeon option only?

    10. What is the most fast 6-core Xeon which can be duplicate?

    11 CS5 must a good record of work: it is wise to get a SSD just to scratch or is - this an exaggeration?

    12. Some say that the Nvidia 5800 is not the fastest card it has 240 cuda cores and some gtx cards have much more than that. What's the story?

    I probably forgot about 324 other questions, but for now, he will do.

    If someone of you can give objective and confirmed information, do it!

    I repeat just what Mylenium and Sebastian said, but I wanted to make sure that their answers were considered as fact (which they are).

    CUDA has nothing to do with After Effects. Among the Adobe video applications, only first Pro CS5 using CUDA. Also, The Premiere Pro Mercury is not supported-use engine SLI. (Keep the issues of Premiere Pro, CUDA and mercury on the Premiere Pro forum).

    There is not a limit of 3 GB/Heart in After Effects CS5. It is true that the largest number the values preset in the memory & multiprocessing Preferences is 3 GB, but you can change the predefined settings. See the comment at the bottom of this page for more information on changing the presets.

    Also, consider that After Effects is not the only software currently running on your computer. At the very least, you also operation of the OS. If you want to spend 4 GB per process of After Effects (which is a reasonable number for digital cinema), and you use 4 CPU cores for simultaneous multiple images of multiprocessing rendering, so you need not just 16 GB; you need as more than 20 GB, so that the operating system and other software have what they need. See this post, who wrote for CS4 - but the principles are still relevant for CS5: "Performance Tip: don't starve to death your software of RAM '

  • How to monitor the CPU, memory and i/o on the system

    Hello..

    Some body help me?...

    1. how to manage the monitoring of the performance of the system and the database during execution of ODI?
    2. how to monitor the CPU, memory and i/o on the system?

    TQ
    balleur

    In an attempt to partially answer your questions:

    1. how to manage the monitoring of the performance of the system and the database during execution of ODI?

    Monitor the performance of the application from a commercial point of view. As transactions per minute, or response time or time elapsed for the key events of the company. Monitor the activity of the material such that the CPU usage is not necessarily linked to the performance of your application. Performance should be measured from top to bottom - business first, then the lower levels until you get finally to computer equipment. Only if you get a problem to the next level - response time is too large, for example - you can go through the lower levels to identify the cause and fix it.

    2. how to monitor the CPU, memory and i/o on the system?

    I personally use "sar" on UNIX-BASED or Linux, or rather "CFDCs" which is the system activity data collector. SADC will measure and collect data on activities on CPU, memory, disks, etc. and save them to a file in binary format. You can then extract these measures later for analysis using SAR (sar f sadc_file_name). The benefits of SADC are that it is light (these operating systems measure such things anyway, just CFDC records far), it records everything at once (with the exception of the network), it records the time stamp too for each measure, and you can analyze it later when you want to.

    There are commercial products out there too who do similar work, with additional features, such as the integration of Oracle and the relationship between several systems. TeamQuest is an example, but there are others also. (I do not work for TeamQuest, but I used their product in the past).

  • Flight Simulator 3 and other games running slowly in Windows 7.

    Original title: Sims 3 (and other games works incorrectly) suddenly running slow.

    I'll try to make this as brief as possible while providing for.

    When I got to Windows 7, the sims 3 worked perfectly. all the graphics on the top and so on. I can't quite identify when exactly it started running slowly and I mean slow! The game, itself, does not take long to load - it never did and it's practically the only thing that has not changed. But when I go in the game (from simply create a SIM to play), that he is lagging badly. To say things to the point, the whole game is rather fluid animation as a slide show of photos.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled, but the problem persists. I've also updated my nVidia graphics card it is newer, but it did not much difference in any of the games. Sidenote: I installed the sims 2 and well there a little laggy every now and then (he's since widows xp; sure enough it's normal) it preforms perfectly. I just can't understand why the sims 3 has suddenly decided to run horribly.

    In other games, such as smaller little such as Turbo Subs, are also slow, but not to the point where I can't even play. In fact, if I play long enough gal disappears and it works normally. But I think that it may just be an incompatibility problem because part of the mine, Burger Shop 2, works very well, even better than when I got Vista. Looking for confirmation here.

    Is it possible to fix it as it used to be, or at the very least, simply reduce the amount of lag?

    You can try to download and install the latest DirectX9 updates CFS3 and still need to other games.

    If the problem persists, then open the Task Manager and check if there are all the running processes that take a lot of CPU resources.

  • The processor high/weird CPU usage and about 20 to 25% system interruptions.

    Hello

    I use an AMD phemon IIx4 965 processor. (never had proplems with this till now.) One of its mainstays bed use ranging from 70-99% in Task Manager exercising while the other 3 are normally working / reading normal numbers. The question comes at random, but won't go away unless I restart my computer. This problem arises in a week a go, I was playing a game in steam when I noticed the drastic performance to fall and began studying. The question, something just when im not playing. I use my computer mainly on the game. The computer slows down because of this. I have no idea what the cause. Help?

    Procexp said interruptions system 20-25. According to CPU - Z and CrystaldistInfo my HARD drive temperatures are all normal, around 28 - 38 c idle.

    Reasently, I got a new case for my computer parts, I removed and passed my components of my old case to a new. I tried to be careful and I know (I know) thinki. enough computers to do this by myself. Fifi, it done once in the past. I have read the instructions and put / connected all the wires and parts according to them. The machine started normally. No problems. This could cause this problem, is a thread in the wrong place? I do not know.

    I used free versions of Windows security essentials and Spybot search and destroy, Avast kernel tdsskiller to search for viruses and malware. All this happened in own. Can he still be a virus or something?
    Used more claire Wise registry and Ccleaner but noting alarming is come to the top, (again I think.) some things Yes, but breaking the ' fix claim has pursuant button has not set a cpu problem.

    First I though its my GPU causing the problem drivers. (google said) Approximately 45 days only a go replace my old AMD for a new R280 AMD Radeon 6950. Allworked very well so far. I found that according to Unknown Device Identifier I had older drivers still on my machine. I had trouble removing the old drivers, but eventually I had to use an uninstall program display driver for getting rid of them and now I only see one set of drivers. This has not fixed the issue of the use of the cpu.

    IM lost, at the end of my skills (mainly google-fu). Can someone help me? I hope this is the right place for this post, if it isn't then I apologize.

    If you want me (hopefully) post set and whatknot please first tell what program for and where to find it.

    I've updated all the drivers on the site of manufacturers on my motherboard side touching the BIOS and embedded PIDE/SATA drivers. Updated my drivers for Audio embedded, embedded LAN Drivers, System & Chipset drivers. (smarter people said that could set).

    Until writing this no problem has arisen, all works fine now. Procexp said system interruptions are now less then 2, compared to the previous 20-25 it is a sign that the update to fix the problem. It seems that this problem corrected everything. It turns out that all i needed was updated drivers thees. Everything works fine now... for the moment at least. Live and learn.

    Thanks for the time and effort you took to look for it.

    You may have installed one or more variants of the malware "VSearch' ad-injection. Please back up all data, and then take the steps below to disable it.

    Do not use any type of product, "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" on a Mac. It is never necessary for her, and relying on it for protection makes you more vulnerable to attacks, not less.

    Malware is constantly evolving to work around defenses against it. This procedure works now, I know. It will not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a couple of days or more after it was published should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.

    Step 1

    VSearch malware tries to hide by varying names of the files it installs. It regenerates itself also if you try to remove it when it is run. To remove it, you must first start in safe mode temporarily disable the malware.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for other instructions.

    Step 2

    When running in safe mode, load the web page and then triple - click on the line below to select. Copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

    /Library/LaunchDaemons

    In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

    A folder named "LaunchDaemons" can open. If this is the case, press the combination of keys command-2 to select the display of the list, if it is not already selected.

    There should be a column in the update Finder window. Click this title two times to sort the content by date with the most recent at the top. Please don't skip this step. Files that belong to an instance of VSearch will have the same date of change for a few minutes, then they will be grouped together when you sort the folder this way, which makes them easy to identify.

    Step 3

    In the LaunchDaemons folder, there may be one or more files with the name of this form:

    com Apple.something.plist

    When something is a random string, without the letters, different in each case.

    Note that the name consists of four words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

    com Apple.builins.plist

    com Apple.cereng.plist

    com Apple.nysgar.plist

    There may be one or more items with a name of the form:

    com.something.plist

    Yet once something is a random string, without meaning - not necessarily the same as that which appears in one of the other file names.

    These names consist of three words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

    com.semifasciaUpd.plist

    com.ubuiling.plist

    Sometimes there are items (usually not more than one) with the name of this form:

    com.something .net - preferences.plist

    This name consists of four words (the third hyphen) separated by periods. Typical example:

    com.jangly .net - preferences.plist

    Drag all items in the basket. You may be prompted for administrator login password.

    Restart the computer and empty the trash.

    Examples of legitimate files located in the same folder:

    com.apple.FinalCutServer.fcsvr_ldsd.plist

    com Apple.Installer.osmessagetracing.plist

    com Apple.Qmaster.qmasterd.plist

    com Apple.aelwriter.plist

    com Apple.SERVERD.plist

    com Tether.plist

    The first three are clearly not VSearch files because the names do not match the above models. The last three are not easy to distinguish by the name alone, but the modification date will be earlier than the date at which VSearch has been installed, perhaps several years. None of these files will be present in most installations of Mac OS X.

    Do not delete the folder 'LaunchDaemons' or anything else inside, unless you know you have another type of unwanted software and more VSearch. The file is a normal part of Mac OS X. The "demon" refers to a program that starts automatically. This is not inherently bad, but the mechanism is sometimes exploited by hackers for malicious software.

    If you are not sure whether a file is part of the malware, order the contents of the folder by date modified I wrote in step 2, no name. Malicious files will be grouped together. There could be more than one such group, if you attacked more than once. A file dated far in the past is not part of the malware. A folder in date dated Middle an obviously malicious cluster is almost certainly too malicious.

    If the files come back after you remove the, they are replaced by others with similar names, then either you didn't start in safe mode or you do not have all the. Return to step 1 and try again.

    Step 4

    Reset the home page in each of your browsers, if it has been modified. In Safari, first load the desired home page, then select

    ▹ Safari preferences... ▹ General

    and click on

    Set on the current Page

    If you use Firefox or Chrome web browser, remove the extensions or add-ons that you don't know that you need. When in doubt, remove all of them.

    The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you reinstall it never. A few small files will be left behind, but they have no effect, and trying to find all them is more trouble that it's worth.

    Step 5

    The malware lets the web proxy discovery in the network settings. If you know that the setting was already enabled for a reason, skip this step. Otherwise, you should undo the change.

    Open the network pane in system preferences. If there is a padlock icon in the lower left corner of the window, click it and authenticate to unlock the settings. Click the Advanced button, and then select Proxies in the sheet that drops down. Uncheck that Auto Discovery Proxy if it is checked. Click OK, and then apply.

    Step 6

    This step is optional. Open the users and groups in the system preferences and click on the lock icon to unlock the settings. In the list of users, there may be some with random names that have been added by the malware. You can remove these users. If you are not sure whether a user is legitimate, do not delete it.

  • Portege R500 - CPU jump and stick to 100%

    I had a problem with my laptop for the last 6-8 weeks, and it would be great if someone can suggest a possible cause/remedy.

    I have a 10 month old toshiba R500 protected (processors Core 2 Duo 1.7 GHz, Intel GMA graphics, 2 GB of ram, 120 GB HDD, Vista)
    It was useless. I already had 2 discs and a new hard drive.

    The problem seems to arise every 2-3 weeks between episodes of the laptop works very well.

    What is happening is the CPU at least 90-100% and stay there for between 2 and 10 minutes.
    Of course, this slows down the computer, but it never breaks down.

    I tried to refine what is the cause, but this happens when two itunes. Outlook or IE are open and arrived with them all open, or open one at a time. This has really left me stuck for what might be causing this and other suggestions of people to another too many open windows, too flash, etc. were not much help because of the many culprits.

    This happened only with itunes open on its own.
    This seems to be the most frequent cause, especially when playing music or sync an ipod/iphone.
    I have all my music on an external drive that could possible was a factor? who knows?

    I managed to note the below information from the Task Manager:

    Process window:
    ITunes is to 36 in the CPU column with 110,00 k in column memory

    Window of performance:
    CPU: 100%
    Memory: 1.24 (of 2g of memory)
    Pagefile: 1815/4313

    If anyone has any suggestions as to what I could try that would be great. People suggest the factory resets and try xp and not vista so much, but if there are other suggestions out there I'd love to hear them!

    See you soon

    > That persists after a reboot, reboot takes about 20 minutes.

    I've seen other discussions about the BISO update and it seems that this problem is related to the operating system that you are confused.

    Hello, I am a user of Hp since 2010 (Hp G42 with i5 and ati radeon 5400 with 4 GB of ram on windows 7) and I used to trust at Hp was the best of all time doing work, games and other things, he gave me a satisfactory performance. and just 1 week ago, I bought a new Hp laptop, has p096tx Hp Pavilion 15 with i5 1.6 ~ 2.4 ghz with NVIDIA geforce 830 M 2 GB with 4 GB ram memory running windows 8.1 Microsoft 64-bit. When I got my HP g42, I had no lag (non-FPS fall) on League of legends. and so I thought I'd buy a new laptop since its already old. When I bought it I tried to play in the League of Legends and other games. the first 5 to 10 minutes, I have no lag goes on League of Legends. and when it hit 15minutes, he started freeze(FPS dropping when i skill), I almost tried everything. Defrag, making my laptop ran on high performance (always), close all background applications, Manager of verification tasks while playing League of Legends (Cpu 10%, 49%, disk 0-100% memory ('System' was the cause of the drive running at 100% I don't know why), network 0%, which makes intel all set for performance and NVIDIA all set to performance ) , change the graphics of the game ( very high and very low has the same nothing nothing less FPS increased), updating drivers and windowsand factory reset, redownloading the game... It gets me excited... I liked HP... Help! If you're wondering what am I asking help for, I want it to run on Maximum performance (I tried to remove the battery to increase performance, DOESN'T HAVE AN EFFECT). and don't tell me that my laptop is broken because its officially at HP and I did nothing for her, I have AVG antivirus. I want a refund if it is not repairable, because I'm not mistaken, and it was not my responsibility) PS: I took care of it really well its 99% no scratches and never messed inward... I need help seriously

  • Fan control with 5750G and other machines problems

    Lets start with stating that the 5750 G (and other models with same design cases) has lots of GPU and overheating problems:

    As well as the mysterious GPU problems:

    This problem is happing on computers between 12 and 20 old frames. Although the user

    • Using a fresh install of windows.
    • Uses the latest GPU driver.
    • Use the BIOS more recent (1.21 for my 5750G).
    • A cleaned the dust from heatsink and fan.

    So that's the problem! Thermal and non-functioning fan control past!

    So it goes like this:

    End of one your PC starts to slow down: This is because the heat past at low price, acer puts on their laptop begins to degrade. This means that even if the fan trying to cool the CPU and the GPU. The heat generated by the CPU and the GPU may be transferred on the radiator. Thus the CPU and the GPU lower their performance so that the computer does not so hot that it cannot work. And damage the CPU and the GPU.

    After a bit more time the PC begins to close when you use more intense programs / games:
    This is because that which has degraded the heat past so that the computer becomes so hot than its cutting himself to avoid damaging himself.

    So what's the problem?: I mean that acer can not simply replace past heat each contact? So what can they DO?

    Here's what Acer should do: Do a BIOS 1.22 WITH CUSTOM FAN CONTROL!
    It would be easy! While the main problem is the thermal past. There is another problem:

    Fan will not go 100%: when my 5750 hits 95 degrees Celsius. It is still running the fan speed of ~ 60-70%!
    When it hit 103 degrees Celsius. Just 2 degrees, far from extinguished to prevent critical damage. She is STILL going to ~ 60-70%! Acer... I know that the fan can be turned to a higher speed. Because when I turn on my 5750G after he himself has just cut off due to overheating. He rotates extremely fast fan! But just for a few seconds. Then he goes back to the being to slow to cool enough.

    Acer... Why not do that? ! : Come on Acer! Do it! Make a new BIOS, I would be happy. And I know that Acer is not a * beep * ty company. But actually listens to their customers! If your worried that some people would go in the BIOS and the fan settings so that they broke the laptop. Then just have a big WARNING: "Guarantee will be woid entering this option" or a "to activate this option go to Acer.com/XXXX and type the code. Follow-up of the caveat "the guarantee will be void.

    Please Acer. Give people who know what they make of the option to do so!

    Im going to this ends with a quote from another post on your forum:

    «I look a little, but have not found anything to give a bit more power the fan...»
    Acer could not just add a few adjustments of fan to the bios?

    Hello

    Today I can finally post what you are waiting for. The fan controller tool was developed in a public place.
    Anyone who decides to install this tool, please take note once more:

    • Acer does not support this tool on systems from laptops Aspire 5750 G / 5755G.

    • Acer does not support this tool on Acer OEM Software (your laptop comes with Windows 7 installation).

    • Users with other portable model should not use this tool. This will be entirely at your own risk.

    • Other OS can run this tool, but Acer does not test or review it. Acer is not responsible for any bad consequences when using the tool in that mentioned other environments.

    Official statements made, here are the goodies. Be sure to download the PDF file as well, if you want to check the installation process:
    FTP://ftp2.Acer-euro.com/notebook/aspire_5750G/fan/FanController_V1.0.0.3.zip
    FTP://ftp2.Acer-euro.com/notebook/aspire_5750G/fan/SOP_AS5750G_Fan_Control_Utility.PDF

    Feel free to have a discussion open after this post on the results. I tell you what I'll be less frequent in this topic, though.

    Anyone who still has problems when running this tool is advised to contact Acer support and get their laptop repaired.

    We thank all for your patience, hope that this helps out you.

    Kind regards

  • Windows Media Player enabled at startup interferes with sound, video and other sources

    Hi, this is a known issue since I've had this laptop second hand! But always thought that one of the USB flash drives was the cause (Sandisk Cruzer Micro U3), since the mouse cursor blinks like crazy until everything is fully charged and becomes stable. It is clear now Windows Media Player peut cause this conflict for two reasons. A single, "WMP" is pre-activated on startup? (as confirmed with the Task Manager, he just goes there and "sparkles" like crazy). And two, "WMP" wants to seize all media, he can find by default automatically; I "can I" accidentally put as such (during an update of Windows that you are prompted), not sure?

    A purchased late 2009 "Pinnacle PCTV Pro HDTV USB Stick" product had never worked right? Cause the software "TVCenterPro" was unstable, and TV shows have been troubled and often froze. OEM is finally released with a great release of TVCtr Pro5x ("TVCenter6"), and it works much better! But I could only install it in trial mode until I found the CD product key.

    I uninstalled and reinstalled TVC6; but no TV (or FM radio) channels can be found in the full activation mode? And better actually worked in "trial mode; which didn't make any sense? Pursuit of the investigation, that's when I discovered "WMP" behaviour above; and forced a complete process tree removal. I did the same thing to TVC6, which cound not 'see' peripheral integrated audio from the laptop in full mode? And on reloading the program, it worked! TVC6 can now detect the device audio and pick up channel and stations by their identifiers as he did in "test" mode There's more to refine what I should do to properly operate the TVCenter6. But I need to know why "WMP" havoc on audio, video and other sources, hardware and software!

    The 'specifications' are Internet Explorer 9 (new), Vista Home Basic SP-2 and Windows Media Player 11.0.6002.18311. The embedded video is ATI Radeon Express and the audio Realtek High definition, the processor is Intel Pentium Dual Core & so on.

    * The system doesn't have a virus etc and is up to date. Has anyone met a similar behavior with Windows Media Player?

    PS: I just start WMP(11x) again, and of course, the mouse cursor begins to blink like crazy immediately. The only solution is to make the highest (force the tree closed the process and prevent WMP launched with the use of the other audio video).

    It turned out that the real problem was much worse than I thought! I had to reinstall sound, video and other device drivers; Windows Management Framework Core for Vista x 86 [(bundle 32 bits: Windows Powershell 2.0, Windows Remote Management 2.0 ("WinRM"), Background Intelligent Transfer Service 4.0 ("BITS"))], etc.. And preparation tool system update to find and fix registry I didn't know were there? (42 total, only 4 keys were fixed. The other 38 were removed one by one, after finding a way to change the access permissions; not even administrator has for Vista Home Basic; for files also). Addition of a few executables of line at the command prompt (indicated in respective Microsoft etc. support messages and articles online); and what you said that I had already done all troubleshooting (failed?). After working on it for two days, the system suddenly broken to normal; and works better than ever. Windows Media Player (11 x) is working great now and is no longer remains in memory when opening and closing several times; hardware audio and video is surprisingly better; even the works of volume mixer! And that weird State "crazy cursor" that caused the blue screen error if allowed to go on long enough are gone! (even after the insertion of misc USB flash and other devices). Windows updates found nothing to "change" other than the periodic updates. I also ran the command line to stop several languages of the poll"(tout ce qu'il s'appelle?), and"Windows features"appears much faster than the overall speed and performance." All that's left is to tweak "Windows features" for optimum performance; Therefore, the problem is solved!

    Please note: I can't turn off the storage management removable and Remote Differential Compression etc to speed up Vista even more (not). TVCenter6 works fine but "hangs" in memory (at the end).

    For these questions, please go to the related post via this link: optional features of Windows cannot be enabled or disabled, hidden Windows updates cannot be uninstalled.

    Support: Please add a "Mark" button for the problems solved by the user (and when Microsoft does not provide the answer, as is the case with all other messages); so I can close the nets, I opened as 'resolved on mine'.

  • Vista goes to 50% CPU usage and connects the computer for hours after the beginning

    Original title: Vista processor

    Stupid Vista goes to 50% CPU usage and connects the computer for hours after the start.  Cannot run anything with any request of CPU without getting bogged down and crashing.  It is not windows defender, I suspend this service and the machine is ok for another 1/2 hour, them I'm up to 50% of the CPU.  The idle process said Task Manager is > 90%, still indicates 50% CPU usage and the cooling fan looks like a 747 taking off.  Should I just pull the machine and go for Linux, or what?  Cannot run games or whatever it is, totally disgusted with vista of POS and microsoft can it Deep and do not get windows 7, it is probably worse.  Is that all I can turn off to get the same performance than, say, windows 3.1?  It would be preferable to the current situation.  MSCKMA.

    Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
    For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
    Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
    your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
    Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
    Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
    with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
    Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
    BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
    each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
    presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
    in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
    necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
    manually by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
    Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
    older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
    get new manually if you wish.

    ===========================================

    Refer to these discussions because many more excellent advice however don't forget to check your antivirus
    programs, the main drivers and BIOS update and also solve the problems with the cleanboot method
    first.

    Rob Brown - MS MVP - Windows Desktop Experience: Bike - Mark Twain said it right.

  • Install an upgrade of Vista or Win 7 from Xp or Vista: can I install the first then get updates then install or just install when the first is installed? And other related issues.

    Firstly: I understand that Windows XP can have Windows Vista upgrades. Second, Windows 7 upgrades require Windows Vista not windows XP.

    So:

    -If I had to install Windows XP: I install the Vista upgrade right after? Or should I get all updates for XP first?

    -If I had to install Windows Vista: I would like to install the Windows 7 upgrade right after? Or should I get the updates for Vista first?

    -Would be recognized hardware in a laptop in the upgrade or installation of the version full? For example: I have a laptop. It is pre-loaded with the software and hardware that had specific software: for example: the modem, modem wireless and other things that the cell needs to function... But I had to make a back-up for the laptop, there was no installation cd and cd software. I know that Windows installs drivers that are ok. The material would be useless if?

    Thank you.

    "If it ain't broke...". "is well thought!

    It is whether equipment manufacturers if they write Vists/etc drivers, or not.

    And they often decide to sell more NEW material, instead of writing the most recent operating system drivers.

    Microsoft depends a lot on what they provide.

    See you soon.
