  Hello, maveric8673

  Do you recognize the files?
  If there are files that you saved in a specific program in the folder?

  It is usually more old programs will try to save files / settings to a location requiring the administration of rights which translates the writing files in the folder Windows virtualstore. A marker is also created so that if the program accesses this file again, it will point to the file in the virtualstore folder. If you use an older or not designed for Vista program and its economy at this place, try to update the program.

  According to the files, removing items from the folder may affect programs, but yes, you should remove them manually.

• Processor does not reach 100% of the speed of the clock when 'PCI Lock' is disabled in the Advanced Start parameters

  Hi guys,.

  Ran into a strange problem, so thought I'd give this forum to try. Tried to discuss on the Windows forums community but they have been seen nothing of all this.

  I noticed that the machine felt slow in the last month, but never gave him much however. Today, for some reason, I opened the Task Manager and noticed that no matter how much charge the CPU is obtained, the speed does not pass more than 2.28 GHz (Standard clock speed is 2.3 GHz). Now, at first I thought that it could be the power settings, since I got the butterfly processor speed previously by reducing it to 95%. After a few game, I spread the power settings, since the system does not meet them if you cut the State of maximum power, the processor speed drops too. When the value to 100%, it does not more than 2.28 GHz. In other words, since it's a pocessor mode, because it reaches its full capacity, it won't in mode.

  I updated the drivers and BIOS from the manufacturers Web site. The only way to fix this is by checking the box 'PCI Lock' in the advanced in msconfig startup options. When the box is checked, the computer restarts and the processor works properly, increasing up to 3.3 GHz. The only problem with either once the box is checked, problems with other devices, for example, the network card is not recognized at all. Uncheck box reboot and network card functions as it should, but the processor is throttled.

  I don't know if it could have a bearing on the question somehow, but fails the secondary HARD disk spin down according to the power settings. It is supposed to stop after 1 minute, but despite having no activity (in resources, or audible reads/writes monitor) it keeps spinning. If you have any advice on the processor, maybe you have an idea on this instead? His eating his power and producing unnecessary heat and noise because the hard drive is used for backups.

  The specifications are:

  Reference Dell M3800

  Windows Pro 10

  CPU i7-4712HQ 2.3 GHz (up to 3.3 GHz)

  16 GB OF RAM

  512 Samsung SSD (with BONE)

  Secondary 1 to

  I don't know when the issue started, since performance was slow for about a month and I can't blame new facilities for this. The PCI lock seems the only way to solve the problem temporarily. All the drivers are up to date, even tried downgrading and upgrading the BIOS. Only the PCI lock seems to have no effect.

  Any help would be greatly appreciated!

  Hi cc171,.

  Thank you for your continued support.

  After a few more game, I'm desperate and "reset" of the operating system (keeping my files). That, to my surprise, did not help. I've done some windows system checks in the cmd (sfc and dism) and tools are a few corrupted files (which they were unable to repair due to files being corrupted as source). I then provided dism an iso windows fresh to keep system files to and managed to fix the image. Unfortunately, this does not solve my problem.

  Here are the corrupt system file that could not be repaired:

  Could not reproject corrupted file [23 ml:24] "? \C:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64"\[l:10]"opencl.dll"; source file in the store is also corrupted

  I then proceeded to do a complete factory reset (because I lost all my applications anyway, there was nothing else for me to lose). The system restored to W8.1, which is really strange, because I deleted all the files of previous windows.old through disk cleanup. Even if I had retired, good news. The limitation was missing, and the drive turned down when realized. I've been invited to upgrade to W10, I did (the download process and installation is rather time consuming...) and once up and running, the CPU still works correctly.

  Of course, my next step, has been updated all my drivers using my product key on the DELL Web site.

  I downloaded everything manually and kept checking my processor after each installation/reboot. Everything worked fine until I installed the:

  * Intel platform dynamic and thermal setting driver *.

  After a reboot, the Task Manager showed once again to the top of the formidable GHz 2.28. I put a system restore point, just like windows has fully booted, before updating the drivers, so I decided to restore it at this point. No luck, the processor still be strangled. Because I have nothing to lose, once more, I do a reinstall full (which once more, the rolls be back to W8.1. After around an hour, the W10 up and running. I went to update all my drivers, exuding the platform driver and dynamic thermal setting, with reasonable success. The processor is no longer limited. The only problem, after installing the motion sensor driver, the HARD drive stopped spinning down. At this point, I don't have time to play, decided not to back down.

  Thus, at the end of the day, the culprit to my problems were the official DELL drivers:

  System utilities | Intel platform thermal and dynamic framework pilot (104 MB)

  &

  ST Microelectronics LNG3DMTR pilot sensor of movement (35 MB)

  With the new installation of Windows (and the Motion Sensor installed Driver), once more SFC/scannow found errors that cannot be repaired. Thorugh DISM, I managed to repair the image of the system, but the HARD drive always turns freely. More importantly, the limitation is GONE.

  Regarding your questions above, I don't have a chance to check if there is power or the current limit, but there's certainly been no thermal regulation. The CPU is still relatively fresh, and fans did turn, even if very quietly (now with the processor works properly the temperature rises up to 84 degrees (up 3.29 Ghz) and fans spin very hard under prolonged load).

  Regarding the HDD, no system or other utilities consulted the reader (analyses excluded antivirus, indexing and so forth that unchecked, the disc is only used as a manual backup). Even if the HARD drive isn't spinning down, no limit certainly makes life a lot easier. Ill wait for a new version of the driver for the motion detector see if it solves the problem, if not, disconnect the drive from the motherboard may be my only option.

  I don't know why the official Dell drivers could corrupt the file system, since they were after all, designed for this particular system, on this particular operating system. There are no other programs interfere with their installation and operation, given that the pilots were the first things to be updated.

  At the end of the day, I found the problem, it's a good step forward, but it seems that the resolution is out of my reach.

  Thanks for your help!

• Vista Enterprise using 100% CPU countiniously

  I use Vista business on dell Inspiron 6400 (had vista with laptop). The laptop has dual core processor and a CPU is used 100% without interruption since install. I have installed all updates using windows update utility. I have also disabled the indexing service and also to adjust Visual effects for best performance. The problem still exists.

  In the Task Manager, I see a peremptory touch 100% CPU graph and another pretty normal CPU graph. I have 2 GB of ram and still 1,3 GB free. I have not yet installed any software. In the list of process System Idle Process takes, 90 + CPU usage no other program uses much CPU.

  For this reason, my laptop is very slow to respond and almost useless, please help me.

  I think that I found the correct culprit this time. I tried to disable the edge of BIOS devices implemented and it worked. When narrowed "Media Card and 1394" device was causing too much hardware interrupts. My PC works fine and no CPU usage after you turn off the device. I think that the fault was in Media card on board the aircraft.

  It took me a long way to reach this solution, so to help others here you are a few steps to take to limit the problem.
  -Task Manager open to see if any software uses the CPU more than expected. If you notice any software then its easy to uninstall or disable the program at startup etc.
  -If Task Manager processors are normal and yet one or more CPU is used close to 100% and then download and run http://live.sysinternals.com/procexp.exe ProcessXP and run
  -If material interruptions take up too much cpu, then try to disable/remove your attached devices, like modems usb, wireless lan, lan card BIOS Setup etc.

  Hope this will help.

• System interrupts hogging CPU at 100%

  I searched high and low for a solution to the problem plaguing my laptop.  The CPU is * always * on or close to 100% usage.  This problem came all of a sudden... I took my laptop to work to use it to listen to music.  It worked very well at this point.  I left the room for a few minutes and the computer has been restarted itself... and when it restarts it was slow slow slow!  Like a fool, I only use GoBack or system restore.  I searched "solutions".  It has been almost 3 weeks now where this machine was as slow as molasses.  I used to be able to watch DVDs and YouTube videos... now I can't because the image and the sound is so rough!  Arggh!

  They advised me to download Process Explorer... and that's where I learned the system interrupts on this system is unusually high.

  In any case, I have tried several solutions.  I defragmented almost daily (I know, exaggerated).  I ran SpyBot, Malwarebytes, Avira and Auslogics Boostspeed.  I ran the disk error checking and control.  I have updated the drivers.  I removed the programs and files to try to free more hard disk space.  One solution was to do a registry editing (the steps that follow).  I did this and then he defeated due to advice from someone on another forum.

  1. go in the Device Manager (right click on my computer > properties > Hardware tab > Device Manager).
  2. expand IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers and click primary IDE channel;
  3. click on the properties button and select the tab advanced;
  4. If the PIO, and DMA Transfer Mode, this is your problem;
  5. let the open properties panel.

  The solution is relatively quick and painless. It requires two successive reboots. Just make sure you follow until the end, or the problem will return.

  1. open the Registry Editor (start > run > regedit > OK);
  2. expand HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG/System/CurrentControlSet/Control/Class / {4D36E96A-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318};
  3. Select 0001, then click Edit > New > value DWORD;
  4 Type ResetErrorCountersOnSuccess, and then press enter;
  5. click Edit > modify.
  6. type 1 in the value data, and then click OK.

  This should solve the problem with interruptions and make your system work a lot better.

  A person on a forum for tech support suggested I have a scanner with PCPitstop.com... what I did... the results can be found here (if this info can help you solve my problem).  The link to my scan is here: http://pcpitstop.com/betapit/sec.asp?conid=24432482&report=Summary

  I'm at a loss to know what to do.  I've lost my CD of Windows - they're 1000 miles away with my parents.  I don't even know that if I have a real installation CD - Windows XP Home Edition was preinstalled on this laptop when I bought it.  As the backup of the system CDs (1000 miles) I know for sure, I have are, I did when I first came to this system.  I don't have enough money right now to buy a new computer - especially when I know this HAS to be a way to fix - the problem came all of a sudden!  Relocation is not an option because I am away from my backups now - and can get them in the mail for over a month.

  Can anyone help? Thank you!

  Woo - hoo!  Fixed!

• CLEANMGR. EXE to almost 100% of the CPU

  I opened the disk cleaned but it kept running after several minutes so I closed it.  Now CLEANMGR. EXE process is running close to 100% of the CPU.  The hard disk is not full.  I want to stop this process.

  Select Ctrl + Alt + Delete to bring up the Task Manager. Click on the Applications tab, place the curson disk cleanup (CLEANMGR. (EXE) and end task. You may need to show patience, but it will end the task. The task will be probanly ended in all cases at the time you read this message, but it's the solution for the next time.

  The behaviiour by the disk cleanup tool may be because it had not been run for a long time. Not only it removes unwanted temporary files but also compresses the recently accessed files. This is a known problem with disk cleanup it may take some time to evaluate the space gained by compressing the files.

• 100% CPU usage without a lot of programs running windows 7

  Hi all

  I have a WIndows 7 Home Premium 32 bit OS on a HP probook 4320 s (processor Intel i3, 3 GB of RAM). I have a problem that even if I have no major program (basic prograps such as winamp, freecell, 2-3 tabs in firefox/chrome, McAfee AV), to the use of the processor many times, reaches 100% and the computing experience suffers dramatically.

  I was check in Task manager whenever this problem happen, however I can find no particular trend in usage data.

  Here are the things I tried but did not able to identify the problem.
  -Reinstallation of Windows 7
  -Uninstalling important programs (including MS Office 2007) and to have naked stuff minimum as hp drivers, Open Office, Adobe reader, etc.
  -Change Antivirus of AVG to McAfee and disable real-time scanning. I always had an antivirus in my computer, but this intermittent slowdown of the system never used to happen about 6 months back. I'm sure that no one is facing this problem of slow performance in an i3 processor / 3GB RAM compatible PC because of the AV.
  -Stop web browser at this time, but then system processes like SVCHOST take care of system resources
  -Disable Windows Update

  Is it possible due to overheating problem? I can verify this using my laptop in a room air-conditioned so that cooling is faster.
  My laptop is under warranty, so I can't go as well to HP, but this would be my last resort because their service is just too bad.

  I'm totally frustrated now. Seen two bad experiences consecutive (once in the HCL Office and now in this HP laptop), I am eager to try my luck on a Macbook next time: P

  Please, help me to solve this problem.

  Download an app called Coretemp, should tell you you're current time CPU.
  It should also list the thermal Maximum for your CPU Model (think that's the Tj temperature on the main window)
  Since you already have form and whatnot and still get the same problem I think it is maybe a hardware problem as a module of bad memory that could be the cause of memory leaks and corruption of some applications. But without looking more closely, I could not say with certainty.
  You can also check the problems of memory with windows memory diagnostic (just search for it in the start menu search)
  next time you start the machine, it runs the memory test.
  You can also try an update of the BIOS for laptop from the HP website.
  Also... BTW... MacBooks are known for overheating...
  I hope this helps.

  Hello grtgtrplyr,

  I understand your processor is constantly working to 100% and you are looking to fix. I'm you provide a HP support document: using Microsoft System Configuration (Windows 8), which will guide you through to disable startup items and Services in your system that may be causing the problem. I would recommend that once you have disabled any of this case the question constantly you then start reactivating the Services items and commissioning until you determine which is causing the problem. You can re-enable one at a time or in groups to refine more quickly. Once you know what Service or startup item is causing the problem, you can search a solution for it.

  If you wish to help with this is you please re-post with the Service or startup item and I'll be happy to help you. Thanks for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!

  Welcome to the community,

  What is your host operating system? Windows 7? Did you apply SP1?

  In this case, add vmmon.disableHostParameters = "TRUE" to the C:\ProgramData\VMware\VMware Workstation\config.ini and restart the host.

• Tecra M4 or Portege M400: notice required

  Hello
  I plan on buying a tabletPC and close to 100% chose Toshiba. Prices seem to be ok. But I still don't know what to choose - Portege M400 or Tecra M4.

  The M400 is power supply newer batteries, lighter, longer, and I have a Core Duo cpu. However, I use programs like Photoshop, AutoCad, 3ds max, Corel and so on.

  Is that the Intel chip is sufficient for these purposes? The M4 has GF Go6600 GPU which I'm sure is ok.

  Help, please! Thanks for the tips!

  Hello

  I studied a bit in the internet and found some data about the M4 Tecra and Portege M400.
  It seems that Tecra has been delivered with a different hardware configuration.
  You can purchase the Tecra with CPU Intel-Pentium-M (Dothan) 760, 740, 750, 730 1.6 GHz, 1.73 GHz, 1.86 GHz, 2.0 GHz and 2 different graphics cards: nVIDIA GeForce FX Go6200 64 MB or 128 MB nVIDIA Go6600.
  Also, there are different sizes of HARD drive; 40, 60 and 80 GB
  The screen is 14.1 "(1400 x 1050)."

  The same thing on the Portege M400. It has also been configured with different CPUs:
  Intel Core 2 Duo (Merom) processor T7400, T7200, T5600, T5500.
  The graphics card is a bit slower because it s a graphics card memory sheared.
  But you know, if you're not a hardcore game player, so you don't need a graphics card performance. The size of the screen is a bit smaller. Its 12.1

  I think that if you like little notebook so the M400 is not a bad choice.

  But you know s of your choice and you must know what you want to buy.
  But I like more the Portege unit

• Acer Aspire V3 - 571G not hot.

  Hello

  I have an Acer Aspire V3-571G53216G50Makk for 3 years now.

  But since it's new it kept to reach high temperatures.

  And when I'm games it comes in close to 100 ° C, which is not good for the GPU & CPU.

  But the problem is that the fan does not spin at 100%.

  Does anyone have a solution to change the fan speed?

  Things like Speedfan, Acer FanController do not work.

  Or if Acer could update FanController program, it would be useful.

  I hope someone could help me

  Greetings,

  David

  Hello

  Well, to my knowledge there no software provided by Acer that could help you control the speed of the fan for your computer. I had some heat issues with my laptop, and some people suggested me to change the thermal paste. I did and I got a temperature much better after changing thermal paste in some applications (notably for the GPU), but in other cases, the only thing I did is to reduce the thermal regulation. For example in AIDA64 extreme stress test usually my CPU was about 2.2 Ghz front at full load (97 C) due to the thermal regulation. After changing thermal paste, my CPU running constantly at about 2, 9 - 3.0 Ghz (97). (I7-4720HQ processor 2.6 ghz) So I had less control but as you can see it the same temperature. Overall is a very good improvement in my opinion.

  Then you can try to change the thermal paste and see if this can help you. However, this idea is not very good if you do not have a good understanding of the computer and also a good guide to how to disassemble your computer.

• What is the maximum CPU/GPU temperature safe for a 7212nr?

  When game Unreal Tournament 3 or Battlefield Bad Company 2 CPU reaches 90 ~ 92 degrees centigrade and GPU 80.

  What is considered 'safe' or 'normal' temperature for this laptop?

  I mean "without danger" for:

  -Avoid a shutdown.

  -Avoid damage BGA.

  -Other bad things.

  Thank you.

  These temperatures are hot enough, especially the CPU, once it starts to get close to 100 ° C, the processor will be throttle, slow down to avoid heat damage. If it cannot speed up, the computer will shut down to avoid frying the chip.

  If it is not under warranty, you may apply the thermal paste yourself and Yes. From my experience, the factory thermal paste is not enough. In fact, they use the dough, they used tampons. If you feel dangerous to do it yourself, take it to someone.

  If this isn't the case, buy you some arctic silver 5 and apply it. I say, if it starts to get into the middle of the 1980s, it's not too hot.
