Help! My Lenovo T60 Thinkpad too slow for life...

Hello

So I got my Lenovo T60 for like a year and a half, and until two months ago, it worked well enough (he got the occasional fan at first error message place however) and then all of a sudden he started bluescreening, as it would not go past the Welcome screen. So I installed Windows 7 and it worked fine for 3 weeks, then again bluescreening. So I decided to go back to XP. Establishment lasted 2 days (no, I'm not exaggerating) and since then, it takes 30 minutes just to start. And although I can't do anything on this issue because it is too slow; a simple command such as opening a folder takes 10 minutes! Has it damaged something by installing Windows 7? What can I do to make it normal again? Thanks in advance

Looks like a bad HD for me. You need to check the bad sectors, which can be easily made to initialize with a linux LiveCD/USB and by running disk utility it. It will report on the SMART status of your drive, and I suspect that your HD to be riddled with bad sectors, ergo long boot time and BSOD.

  • Union all too slow for my query any alternative?

    Hello

    The following query prints the desired results. What I'm trying to do is to add to my query below is to also retrieve information from different dates (for example 01.01.2012 - 30.4.2012), more information below, but with 0 amounts. The only solution I found is to duplicate the query to a union and entry dates you want below. The problem is that, then the query is too slow.
    Any other recommendations are welcome
    SELECT s.trans_datetime,s.alloc_ref,s.accnt_code,s.treference,s.DESCRIPTN,sum(s.amount*(-1)) as amount,s.conv_code,sum(s.other_amt*(-1)) as other_amt,s.anal_t1,ss.descr,

    OK... What is not eligible for a situation to replicate the query to use UNION all clause You can simply do more in select:

    Select  column_list1... column_listN,
    case when s.trans_datetime BETWEEN to_date('01.01.2013','DD.MM.YYYY') AND to_date('30.04.2013','DD.MM.YYYY') then s.amount

    end amount
    from table_names
    where (s.trans_datetime BETWEEN to_date('01.01.2013','DD.MM.YYYY') AND to_date('30.04.2013','DD.MM.YYYY') or s.trans_datetime BETWEEN to_date('01.01.2012','DD.MM.YYYY') AND to_date('30.04.2012','DD.MM.YYYY'))

    Thank you anyway
    Adelina

    You can catch Macromedia Studio 8 on Amazon for $ 50. Flash 8 has a great under XP, a half decent machine should have no problem with this version. I remember that I ran with 512 MB of RAM on a Pentium IV.

  • Too slow for Toshiba 3.0 transfer speed

    Hello

    I just bought a toshiba external hard drive 3.0.
    I use windows 7 genuine.

    My pc specs are pretty ok cos I'm able to run games like crysis 2.
    The problem is my external hard drive has a slow transfer rate. This problem, I started facing along 3 months ago. My hard drive is out of warranty.

    My USB ports are ok and I connect it to the main port.
    Transfer speeds are 10 Mbit/s, and sometimes it falls to Kbps!

    In addition, it does not copy certain files and gives the error 'Cannot read from the source disk' or something like that.
    There is no Virus in there, I activated the write cache. I've defragmented it.
    My OS is fine, and also, I checked it on other operating systems.

    Also, I tried to use "check the drive for errors" with the proper procedure, but it crashes somewhere in the Middle after he treats 500000 sectors or so.

    I got my HDD of my cousin, such that it has used no more PC and with no cover so I have no idea of the model (although if there is any utility to find the model then please let know me).
    In addition, it has worked well during the time. Me and my cousin come only from the India.

    How can I solve this problem?
    Please help me.

    Please don t understand me wrong, but if the matter is urgent you can call Toshiba in your country or the nearest Toshiba service provider contact.

  • Replace the subset of table w/Shift Register too slow for my Application

    This is similar to other posts, but I have not found one that addresses the limitations of an approach of shift register.

    I have a part of an application that I'm turning to 500-1, 000Hz.  The process extracts a block of data from the ADC, and I need to store this data, then collects more of the ADC.

    I've set up what seems to be the bottleneck of the present in the attached .zip file.  When I run the attached code with profiling (see. PNG file), it tells me that it takes on average 3.8ms for the Subvi to run.  At this rate, I can only run around 260 Hz.  I have a Subvi similar to this in my code and the code can run at 1000 Hz without this Subvi, but slows down to about 160 Hz when it is activated.

    Is it possible that I may collect data about 1.7 KB tables and run at the speed I need?  Any input would be appreciated.

    For purposes of reference. Debugging should be disabled on the sub - vi.

    Looking at the code you provided - don't just disable debugging -! you have some other options of "exécution" to reset.

    This should speed up the Sub - vi SR will be your friend again!

  • Too slow for Skype

    We have an older NB300 of 1 month with 1 GB into standard. When you try to use Skype (battery or sector) Skype shows this computer runs slowly. We can hear people on the other end, but our conversation faints. This also happens on Skpe testing. All other programs are closed and switched to high performance.
    Any suggestions? Purchase of another GB of hard drive will help. Running Windows 7 starter edition. Thank you

    Hello

    Personally, I have never used Windows 7 starter. But I know, Skype does not require much Cpu resource to run. 1 GB installed memory is sufficient to run it. Have you tried using older versions of Skype?

  • HP Laserjet M1132 MFP is too slow on the network!

    Hello

    My HP Laserjet M1132 MFP is too slow on the network!

    I connect the printer to the windows XP 32 bits SP3 using UBS port. The printer works fine on the local computer, but when he shared on the network running too slow, for example with the print test page it takes about 45 seconds to print and other documents, it takes much longer.

    I installed the last form HP driver site and update the firmware it the latest version.

    It happens on other Windows XP machines as well.

    I have connected the printer to my laptop (Windows 7 64-bit) and it works very well (no delay on the network) and it seems that this problem have some relationship with the windows XP Driver.

    I used the trick of local port on computers remote (instead of the normal method) like this:

    "add a local printer.
    "new port".
    "localport".
    \\XPcomputer\HPPrinterName port name

    but still nothing!

    There is nothing wrong with the network, allows us to use a Samsung printer on the same machines on the network without problem.

    I really appreciate your HELP!

    It seems that no one on the planet has the answer to this question!

    The only available option is to upgrade your operating system to windows 7 (vista can work, I have no idea!).

    He wat the only solution for me.

  • DVD player is too slow on the Satellite A100-507

    the stack of reader dvd * a dvd - ram uj - 841 s my satellite a100-507 is too slow. (~ 1000 kb/s - far too slow for a movie - and it does not depend on the player.)

    specifications technical manufacturer is 8 x reading + writing for DVD, even I can write DVD up to 2.4 x

    is this a software problem? (I use Windows XP)

    Hello

    You are not able to watch DVD on your laptop, or what is the problem?

    I studied a bit and found a few player features:
    Maximum read speed:
    CD 24xMax
    DVD-ROM 8xMax

    Maximum write speed:
    CD - R 24xMax
    CD - RW 4xMax
    HS CD - RW 10xMax
    US CD - RW 10xMax
    US + CD - RW N/A
    DVD-R 8xMax
    DVD-R(Double Layer) 2xMax
    DVD - RW 4xMax
    DVD + R 8xMax
    DVD + R (Double Layer) 2.4xMax
    DVD + RW 4xMax
    DVD-RAM 5xMax

    So you info about 8 x reading + writing of DVD is not exactly true. It is based on the DVD.
    In addition, it is important to mention that these are the max values.
    Sometimes the drive reads or writes with a lower speed. It depends on the cache status.

  • HP 6029de RAID 0 too slow

    I changed my 6029de HP in RAID 0. But the writing speed is 30 MB/s.
    Is not too slow for a RAID 0 system?

    Will there be an update of firmware for it? or can I pay what?

    translated by google

    If you have changed from RAID 0 that normally you have to reinstall the operating system or run the recovery as far as I know and then try some points of reference.

    Also where do you see that read/write speed?

    It is when copying, cutting or trasnfer files?

    Mine appears lower than that and im current raid 0 and I can say it's faster and I do not trust fully the speed that Windows says it is trasnfering.

    It's even slower when you transfer to or from a usb device, which is normal.

    I'm strictly a Windows of the elements user. That being said, your problem description... files. mov (id) caught my attention.

    What is the file name complete for one of these problem files. I found a name online... (id) .mov - HD.mp4. Do you have anything in your afterlife (id) .mov file name?

    What happens if you rename the file

    a. If you see now .mov (id), then just remove the (id)

    b. If you have now (id), mov - HD.mp4, then simply delete the .mov (id) - HD, leaving just a .mp4 file.

    I took 'a' and 'b' in elements of first 12/12.1 on Windows 7 64 bit and it has not made a difference... any both in the program without problem.

    I don't know why Mac could be rename some of your files, but would it be the name change process which slows down things. Is there file storage / recording of locations that need to be explored? Is the name of the file to the left of the .mov (id) change also when appears the .mov (id)?

    Just some thoughts.
