Sluggish performance in point 8.1 of Windows

I'm observing very slow performance in Firefox on my Surface Pro using Windows RTM 8.1. I can't find anything that happens, but some startups take as much as 10 to 12 seconds. In addition, the overall performance of the browser is slow.

I tried running safe mode, and it is still pretty slow.

There is a version of firefox for the subway (on every night)

  • Laptop HP Pavilion G6: mouse pointer delay after upgrade Windows 10

    I installed Windows 7 to Windows 10. So far, the only glitch is with the mouse. After that I typed, the arrow of the mouse does not move during 3 seconds. I have:

    Looked to reinstall the driver. He said that it is up-to-date.

    Properties of the mouse adjusted to zero delay (from average delay) on pointer after typing.

    Both of the above should have potentially fixed, but as it won't let me update the driver, there is little I can do on this charge. Also, I rebooted it after the latter. It made no difference.

  • Point by point count in a window

    I am a user of labview 8.5 working in the field of aerodynamics - namely laminar boundary layer turbulent transition.

    I want to take a signal high-pass filtered, rectify, and then place a window around the remaining signal (equivalent to 10% of the average of the signal not filtered) and count the number of points both inside and outside the window.  I can use a histogram for this as in the attached vi, but I need to do an analysis point by point, because the things that pass through the window faster than a length of residence requirement should be considered as turbulent instead of laminar.

    To say more explicitly the points above the average of 10% get digitally assigned 1, anything less than 0, but say that part of the signal less than 10 consecutive zero points are sandwiched between two 1 then they need to be addressed as 1 also.  Where 10 points in a row to my frequency equals my critical residence time.

    I hope I have given you an adequate description of what I'm trying to achieve, could someone direct me to achieve this please?  I am not too concerned about the filters, frequency etc. are used at the present time.

    Thank you.

    Solved.  YeeHa!

  • System restore calendar is empty, cannot set new points and cannot use Windows help.

    Original title: registry problem affecting system restore etc.

    The system restore calendar is empty, I can't put new points, and I can't use Windows help because I can not type in the dialog box. If the problem is described in the doc #313853, the solution he proposed did not. Defeating my cleanups registry also seems not to help. Any suggestions?

    To all of you who have tried to help me with this problem, I recently came across a solution - I had to reinstall Internet Explorer, which I think had been compromised by my registry cleaner. I never use, so it didn't occur to me that there is something wrong with it. But that seems to have fixed all the problems.

  • Weird minimum brightness of T430 capping issue in point 8.1 of Windows

    Hello

    I have a weird problem. I bought my T430 with Win 7 in. Now that I've upgraded to Windows 8.1, the brightness of the display will get weak after a certain point.

    In Win 7, I could turn down the brightness of my screen at a VERY small point. But currently, with 8.1 Win, although I can turn down the brightness of several points, the brightness of the display would be stuck to, say, 20%.

    1. This is the brightness for the 2nd lowest level:

    2. now, here, it is at its lowest level. Look, there is still another level to go:

    3. Although there is still a level to go (as shown in the image above), if I try to take the brightness to the lowest setting absolute, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING would happen.

    This problem occurs in Win 7 Pro. My lowest brightness level was much, much lower in Windows 7 as in 8.1 Pro Win. He started straining my eyes!

    Help, please!

    Thanks in advance.

    Finally! Found the solution.

    Updated my BIOS and now it works fine.

    Thanks the lenovo support team. You guys have been impressive. Keep up the good work.

    Original title: I can't do a restore point.

    I get exception c:\windows\system32\shell32.dll,control_rundll,"c:\windows\system32\sysbm.cpl",system what can I do?

    This has happened for a very long time.

    Does really say '... sysdm.cpl "?"

    Is that what the text complete and accurate of what the message said exactly?  (there is no sysbm.cpl in XP, but there's a sysdm.cpl).

    What happens if you click on start, run and enter in the box:

    sysdm.cpl

    Click OK - the system properties box opens?

    What happens if you click on start, run and in the type box (exactly):

    %SystemRoot%\System32\restore\rstrui.exe

    Click OK - is the open window of the system restore?

    What is exactly the process (step by step) you are using when you try to create the restore point and when in the process you see this message?

    I think it's a miracle that the Microsoft support engineer can provide a link to an article when the error message report you is a little out of whack and articles doesn't mention your error message at all.  It's real good troubleshooting or clairvoyance!

    The afflicted system has a working CD/DVD (internal or external) drive?

    You have a true bootable XP installation CD (it is not the same as any recovery CD provided with your system)?

  • Screen goes black and only the mouse pointer visible to the windows xp screen

    My computer has used to work without problems.  Now, when I start it upward, to the Windows XP start screen, the screen turns off and all that is visible is the mouse pointer.  I tried to start safe mode, and it does give me even the option - not even if I press F8 at startup upward.  What is the problem with my computer and what can do?

    Thanks for your answers, Dena and Jojih.

    The screen went black and all I could see was the mouse pointer.  There is no ameioration or changes on the hardware of all kinds.  I wonder if one of my employees has a virus on the computer.  I could not do in safe mode, even if I tried to press F8.  If I put in the Windows XP CD, the screen would go black after that he loaded the system files, just like at the start of Windows XP.  So I used Acronis PC Backup and Recovery and make a recovery disc and used to reformat the hard drive and then I reinstalled Windows XP.  Everything has been great to work for.
