• Satellite A300D-17F runs slower than expected

  Satellite A300D-17 F

  Hi friends

  Since I bought this machine, I am not happy.
  There is a problem: he works so slow than other laptops and they have inferior properties.
  I don't understand.

  I almost have to break. I've done all the tips (uninstall tempro, stop the backround programs, program viruses... etc) but it's the same.
  -J' I want to listen to an mp3 that is not open for ten seconds, watch the movie it is not open again for 9 to 10 seconds.
  -i wana to connect to a site web it freezes
  -for example the search for Messenger is taking once again for secondssssss
  -implementation of xp, it is hourssss
  but the machines of my friends who have inferior properties are so fast

  Is there someone has this machines? It has the same problems? or only I have these problems?

  Thank you very much right now.

  Hi mate

  > Configuration of xp, it is hourssss
  This means that you have tested the laptop under Win XP?

  How did you install the Win XP? Have you installed using AHCI mode (in BIOS) or you switch to compatible mode?

  By using the compatibility mode that HARD drive could run slower and this could affect the performance of the operating system.

  Solution: You must install the Win XP in AHCI mode. I think the laptop supports the AMD chipset and the required drivers are therefore part of the ATI graphics chip.
  Download the graphics driver, choose the drivers SATA and include it in the Win XP disc using nLite application. nLite is free and all details can be found in the internet.

• After getting my A200 Satellite games run slower

  I have a laptop Satellite A200 - 14 d with Vista (32) that came pre-installed. I had to format and use the product recovery DVD for vista reinstalled with all the drivers.

  The problem is: before formatting, according to me, there was another application installed for the video card, which now she either. Also games run slower. Until the format in the Device Manager to display adapters there were 2 things. The pilot who has reinstalled successfully and something else I don't remember what it was and who does not also install after the recovery of the product operation...

  Then. can someone tell me which software I can use to improve the performance of my 7300 GO game?...

  Hello

  > The problem is: before formatting, according to me, there was another application installed for the video card that now he not more
  Do you think that it was preinstalled or are you 100% sure?

  Believe me, the same operating system and the software that was preinstalled on your laptop is on the Toshiba Recovery CD.
  The software is the same.
  So if you want to define the notebook to factory setting you should use the recovery CD ;)

  Is that all the games work more slow on Vista. This OS feeds more resources than XP.
  So if you want to play games faster I advise to use XP

• 2000 2202tu my laptop become slow

  I have a hp laptop of 2202tu 2000 for 1 year, I did a restore on my laptop through the partition recovery OEM 6 months ago. But now I see that my pc is running slow too. How can I do it fast as it was when I bought the same. I use my pc for personal use and use, but especially for the staff, like net navigation 16 to 18 hours a day, watch HD movies, listen to music and others.  Any helpful suggestions will be appreciated. Thank you.

  Hi mkshrma:

  Thank you for you inquiry.  I'm happy to help you!

  In response to your question, no, it's not mandatory to upgrade to 8.1 Windows. It's your choice.

• PC running slow increadibly with 128 MB of RAM - recommended to increase the RAM

  Original title: pc running slow increadibly with 128 MB of RAM

  My mother's PC runs incredibley slowly.
  After you perform a clean installation of win xp and addition of firefox, and avast antivirus, pc still increadibly slow.
  His laptop is a HP Omnibook xe4100 and has 128 MB of ram.
  What I do need to update the ram of the laptop computer or is the problem of something that can be fixed with software recording cleaning?
  Thanks for any help on this!

  If you did a clean install, it is not the registry slow down your computer. A clean installation removes all and back windows on the system with just windows files, so the registry is only what is absolutely need to run.

  128 MB of RAM is incredibly low, so even if the slowness is caused by something else, you should buy more in any case, because it will help the computer a little.

• Windos XP and Internet Explorer runs slow after turning to...

  I really hope that someone can help me that the Forums have proved useful to me in the past.  This is my last issue.

  One of my parents, for reasons that I won't, get updated his cable, phone and internet in one of these beams that offers local, rather than paying for phone company each separately.  She has an office of older model PC that runs Windows XP and worked it, Office 2003 (if the memories are good) and Internet Explorer (I mean IE8) very well and quickly.

  After its upgrade of the high-speed line was complete one of the first things I did was to go to Microsoft to download a bunch of updates as it had been on dial until it was impossible to download everything that she needed (she had not kept with it but also rarely used the computer to get on the net so it was not that big a deal).  All XP downloaded approximately 77 updates and after a while successfully installed all of them.  He then restarted and soon after started incredibly slow operation.

  Because it runs more slowly now that when she was on the dial upwards, she is ready to get rid of its highspeed which I said.  I think that one or more of 77 more updates, I installed may have done something.  Also his internet browser now looks like my laptop (Acer with Vista and IE 9) so I think that maybe his version of XP and IE do not play nice with them.  Finally something told me she had a Trojan horse, and some adware that I used Lavasoft to get rid of and their last free version is installed with moy.

  Any help would be appreciated to untangle what is causing his PC suddenly run slow.  I'm tempted to use a restore point and go back, but I'm not sure how to go (and really, I've never used a prior restore point).  I'm half tempted to simply restore the entire hard drive but would have a copy of XP (I don't have a copy of Windows 98 that I some how came in possession of CD).

  Help, please!

• My computer is running slow/start buffering... play stop on NBC news video, CBS., there is not the 2-3 weeks... but not BBC, France 24, etc... .

  Initial problem on MSNBC Nightly News with Brian Williams... they had me download the latest version of Adobe flash and Java again. No help... called my Toshiba laptop manufacturer... suggests they try the options plan three different powers balanced, eco and high performance... no change on a... Contacted my internet provider... many phone calls, try that and other control download speeds, to recommended settings... Finally found a REP there who said there was a problem with the server congestion and they would move me to another server... had to go offline for 24 hours, while they were doing what they had on their end... checked everything with the ethernet cable and wireless also configured modem... Finally I had brought back online and the problem only has not been resolved, always running slow/updated in the buffer in NBC Nightly and a few others also had this happen with a couple of You Tube videos...

  Could this be something with speed use the news channels... as I said I have update/continue good Adobe/Java combo... This may seem a little profane... but I'm still learning about computers 57 women... it seems to coincide with the revolution in Egypt... coincidence or a lot more online activity... ?? !!! I can look at something else but would like to know what is happening and find correct it to add to my book of knowledge... Thank you very much for the time and the entry... essentially checked everything and wherever I can think to...

  Hello

  One of the possible reasons could be the speed of the internet thanks to which time can take to the buffer. You can try under methods:

  Method 1:

  You try to save the video to your computer to see if the problem persists.

  Method 2:

  You can pause the video and let the video buffer for a few minutes before selecting the 'Play' button again. Giving the download a few minutes to catch up while the video is paused can help solve the problem.

  Hope this helps,

• laptop is slow at the point of being unusable

  In short, my Dell Latitude E4310 laptop is slow at the point of being unusable. I am also unable to keep the Windows Defender service runs.

  Last week I got a screen blue error (code c000021a), probably as a result of an update Windows misapplied. I was able to go back to a previous instance of Windows and apply the patches successfully.

  Here is what I checked / done (not necessarily in that order).

  • My BIOS is the most recent (A11) and BIOS diagnostics to come clean.
  • Several analyses of virus & malware in safe mode came up clean.
  • No problem in Windows Startup Repair.
  • I ran a clean boot without result
    The plan of power seems normal and I uninsalled (temporarily) all anti-virus & malware programs.
  • I ran disk cleanup and defragged the hard drive
  • System, advanced, performance, is assigned to the properties 'adjust for best performance ".
  • My performance index Windows scores range from 6.9 (processor) to 4.1 (graphics).
  • Running a Windows system health report returns nothing.
  • CHKDSK (right click on c:, properties, tools, error checking) did find and fix HARD drive errors. I would fix the CHKDSK and WININIT, newspapers but must be either in my or Admininstrator event logs.
  • I ran SFC. EXE, three times, and each time check fails, then only reach 10%, indicating the following: "Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation."

  The journal of SFC seems normal except for the following: 2012-09-07 22:30:28, Info CSI 00000023 [SR] could not check component of b10e9bd0c69db5027b503ea3749c28f3 files, Version = 6.1.7600.16820, pA = PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE_AMD64 (9), the Culture neutral, VersionScope is 1 nonSxS, PublicKeyToken = {l:8 b:31bf3856ad364e35}, Type neutral, neutral, TypeName neutral, clear PublicKey is damaged (FALSE). I can't find a file or folder anywhwere on my system called "b10e9bd0c69db5027b503ea3749c28f3".

  Another forum suggested a clean installation of the factory OEM of Windows.  I would like confirmation or other ideas, because that doesn't seem to be a trivial process.

  Thank you.  -Mark
