• Very slow performance with Windows 7 on i7 Quad

  I bought my wife a Lenovo E530 i7 quad with screen 1600 x 900 and running Win 7 in September 2012. Previously, she had an Asus Core 2 Duo also with Win 7. The laptop is used to picture (scanning, editing, cataloging) work, family, the navigation and email history.

  The E530 was desperately slow at the beginning. Not better, not faster than the Asus. Performance seems to vary from slow to excruciatingly slow.

  Features include:

  -very slow to open programs

  -slow to react to the choice of menus and clicks

  -slow to react to the touchpad

  -scrolling is not smooth, vibrates, much worse than Asus

  -often distorts the sound and video, audio stutters

  -IE9 make often video has properly - green band across the bottom with the rest of the colors shifted upward - change the video quality will fix it sometimes

  -very slow internet response compared to the other machines on the same network of navigation.

  However, startup speed seems to be OK.

  I spent weeks (months?) through the forums, verification of updates, deletion and restoration of various programs and drivers looking for driver clashes. I tried the clean boot with only Windows drivers and various other combinations, and it made no difference.

  For a long time wifi would be max 54 Mbps but somewhere through the process he begins to operate at up to 300Mbps.

  Nothing seems to stand out in reports on health of the system and the event viewer. Windows experience scores seem to be everything I expected from my older i7.

  Resources and performance monitor reports a problem with the hard drive:

  The average disk queue length = Max 16 = 106

  %Idle = 0

  Disk read/s Ave = 0.093 Max = 3

  Disk sec/Transfer Ave = 0,067 Max = 1

  Disk s/write = 0.022 Ave

  Even when the computer runs slower the CPU usage, and memory usage is not mounted and ceiling ever.

  SFC report any breach of integrity.

  FixIt MS - slow performance does not detect any problems.

  The disk check is not a problem any.

  It's so frustrating that my wife threatens to throw it in the trash and buy a Mac (the horrors :-)).

  Any ideas on what I might have missed or what I should look at?

  Thank you

  Wish I had a 128 GB SSD. I suppose you see a serious helping hand to the performance of the system.

• Very slow the new Satellite L40

  I would be grateful for any help you guys can give me.

  I have a Satellite-ish L40 (bought last fall). It's a basic - Intel Celeron death machine / 1.60 GHz / 1015 - RAM under Vista Home Premium. He bought just to make the work of processor + some use very light internet. The problem is that it runs very slowly (including holding still to go when I start by putting).

  I tested virus to death. I regularly run detection of spyware / remove programs. I have reduced the number of startup programs immediately. All results say I have a machine of clam. But it is still as slow as hell. And when I say slow, I can do about a cup of coffee in the time it takes to access the net.

  I contacted Toshiba support, and the best they could suggest was that I reformat the hard disk, which is dramatic enough. If anyone out there has a better suggestion, I'd love to hear it. Right now, I'm rather regretting my purchase.

  Many thanks - Max

  To be honest this radical solution is not a bad proposal.

  But what do you mean exactly with the slow machine?
  How long does take you to a boot?

  The fact is that many applications are preinstalled on this laptop and this could be main reasons for a long start. But the fact is that many of these applications are necessary for the performance of all the features of the laptop.
  In addition, an antivirus program that is running in the background and could affect the startup time. Long ago, I used the Norton Antivirus and this software was a reason my laptop was very slow... I changed it and now I'm using the freeware like Antivir software. It's much better...

• just bought ghostbusters game pc, but it is very slow on my WINDOWS VISTA Home premium... of suggestions?

  I installed the game ghostburters on windows vista Home premium with service Pack 1 and it runs very slowly, I tried the upgrade a few things bo nothing helps.

  whay can I do to improve the speed?

  Well, that may depend on how fast your computer is.  Games have the system requirements listed on the box or the Web site that you downloaded from.  Your computer should generally be at or better than the recommended settings.  Otherwise games will run slowly or not work.  If the game runs slow, in general, you can buy a graphics card faster to make it go more quickly, but it depends greatly on this kind of material you have in your computer now.

• Very slow journal with Windows 7 Home Premium on HP laptop

  I have Windows 7 Home Premium.  Recently (last week or almost) the connection seems to be ultra slow, about 5 minutes to get the login and about 30 minutes before the laptop is usable.

  It is always sensible in this situation to achieve a malware check

  Start the computer in safe mode with network and download and install Malwarebytes (free version for individuals only), updated definitions and run in safe mode. Disable other security software while you do the analyses.

• Very slow Internet after windows installng 10 speed

  Hello
  After accepting the free update of Microsoft for windows 10 of Windows 7 ultimate, I find that my Virgin internet runs much lower to the previous speed. I have updated my Firefox browser without result.
  Any thoughts would be welcome. Removing and reinstalling Firefox would be worth trying?

  Hi scriber.
  If Firefox is slow, try the following steps to remove Firefox as a problem: Firefox is slow - how to make it faster I might suggest also to call the ISP to troubleshoot compatibility problems.

• Very slow Firefox on Windows 7

  I was a Mac with Firefox user and has been exceptionally good. I moved to a Windows 7 machine and loaded Firefox to continue my happiness with Firefox. I made Firefox my default.

  Unfortunately, I find the current Firefox for Windows 7 to create problems. Actual program start-up is very well. It is fine to make a favorite. That's when I'm clicking on the links on the pages I visit I begin to stall on.

  If I click on a link on a web page, I see the link being attempted, but it's just the blue circle goes round and round without resolution.

  Curiously, I've learned to simply click in the HTTP bar behind the attempt link and press the ENTER key to solve. It baffles me why this works, but clicking on the link even in the web page gets me nowhere. If I have a workaround, but it's not how Firefox should work, correct?

  I have disabled hardware acceleration. Who was previously asked by myself, because my first days with Firefox was originally freezes and real accidents. With that the disabled I am not crashing any longer.

  I also tried to reset Firefox with the same results. I have that Ghostery as an add-on (as I did on my Mac version).

  I am not savvy enough to understand the difference between the click versus the ENTER key.  Why does a click stall me out but why does a punch of the ENTER key to the same web page work?
  

  Try temporarily disabling the Ghostery and see if this problem has disappeared.

• System volume information stolen hard drive. VERY slow computer and windows show only (not answer) for 2 to 10 seconds at a time. Help, please.

  After starting my computer to Windows 7 Enterprise, I noticed that it runs very slowly.  for example, the scrolling of a window of firefox crashes every 10 seconds or more.  The gel lasts between 2 and 10 seconds with the little blue wheel, spinning, (not answer) in the toolbar.

  I pulled the top of resource monitor and to see that 4 PID - C:\System Volume Information\ {guid} {guid} is running non-stop with about 720ko read by writing dry and 6 MB per second Disk 0 length of the queue is pegged at 5.  from time to time (once every 10 to 15 minutes), the queue goes to 0 and the computer starts acting normally (i.e. fast) again.  But once the length of the queue points to 5, the problems continue.

  I am running in raid 5.

  I noticed that vssvc.exe is running (PID 4144) with a reference to c:\System Volume Information and the same GUID as PID 4 - system and kernel.

  Any idea what I can do to get back on my computer?  At this point, it is absolutely unusable.

  Hi jyperras,

  Thanks for posting in Microsoft Communities.  The problem description, I understand that the computer takes a long time to stop.  Correct me I misunderstood the question.

  1. What is the brand and model of the computer?

  2 have you made any changes to the computer before the show?

  Follow a few troubleshooting methods and check if that helps.

  Method 1: Disconnect non-essential external devices and then restart the computer. Check if the problem persists.

   

  Method 2: Open the troubleshooting of System Maintenance Utility

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/open-the-system-maintenance-Troubleshooter

  Method 3: Perform a clean boot to see if there is a conflict of third-party software like the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

• Running very slow 64-bit Windows 7

  I installed windows 7 on my Pc. plug below

  Processor: Dual Core E8400 2 x 3.0 G
  Memory: 4 GB of Ram (4 x 1 GB 800 mhz DDR2)
  Graphics card: GeForce 9500GT SLI 1 GB GDDR2
  HARD drive: Maxtor Diamond Max 500 GB

  When I open any program whether the Explorer, Media Player etc. My processor climbs to 51% and memory 42 to 43% and the Pc becomes impractical. The flashes of light Hdd 1/2 sec on, 1/2 Sec off (solid) as a warning light!

  Itys like that for perhaps 20-30 sec according to the opening of Im app. Once opened, it works fine

  Someone can explain why this is happening, do I have to change to 32 bit.

  Arrival of the day, I have installed. I checked for malware and viruses. All clear.

  Thank you

  Marshond,
  Try a clean boot to see if the performance improves at all, after that, we can begin to refine things still further:

  Clean boot

  Test in an environment of clean boot to see if this problem is related to the interference of other programs / services:

  1. start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER. (If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.)

  2. in the general tab, click Selective startup.

  3. under Selective startup, clear the check box load startup items.

  4. click on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable all.

  5. click on OK.

  6. When you are prompted, click on restart.

  7 log on to your account.

  ---------------------------------------------------

  If the problem does not reappear when your computer is in clean boot mode, a background program probably causes interference.

  ---------------------------------------------------

  You can determine which background program is causing the problem by following the steps (start enable half the Services points) in the related article:

  How to perform a clean boot procedure to determine if background programs are interfering with a game or a program that you currently use

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/331796

  ---------------------------------------------------

  To restore your Normal startup:

  1. start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER. (If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.)

  2. in the general tab, click Normal startup.

  3. When prompted, click on restart.
