Updates take a large proportion of UC and bogged down the computer

• Micorsoft windows search filter host uses 3g of ram and slows down the computer to a crawl.

  search filter host started running after the updates and it slowed my laptop to a crawl.   Why is it turning?  And that fact?

  Running Vista on the HP hdx laptop.  RAM 4g dual-core

  It is probably rebuild the search Index (maybe called something in one of the updates for this action) - Although it could do other things as well (it's hard to tell).  You can do this finish faster in general by reducing the number of file types or sites included in the Index (Start/Control / Panel / Indexing Options / Advanced)- but the file types and locations are not included in basic research (it's a compromise).  Some people say that excluding files .xml help (especially if you have a big disco).

  If this does not solve the problem (or you're stuck with it running and it will not be closed) Download Process Explorer http://download.cnet.com/Process-Explorer/3000-2094_4-10223605.html and see which fits all the CPU usage - it should provide more information than Manager and helps focus in spots on the problem.

  The problem may be with the updates (or one of the updates).  Try a system restore to a point in time BEFORE the problem started (before installing updates without doubt).  Here is the procedure: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/using-windows-vista-system-restore/.  Don't forget to check the box to show more than 5 days of restore points.  If the first attempt fails, then try an earlier point or two.  NOTE: You will need to re - install any software and updates that you have installed between now and the restore point, but you can use Windows Update for updates (but be careful, because if the issue is resolved, then one of these probably caused updates and you do not want to recreate the problem).

  For more information on the updates (which seems to be the source of your problem since it was started after them installed), repost in the Windows Update Forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/InternetExplorer/threads where the people who specialize in updating issues will be more than happy to help you with this problem.  Try to provide them with the names of the updates and their number KB (as well as all that you have done to try to solve the problem).

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• YouTube / GIFs causes sound stretch and shuts down the computer.

  Hello.

  Everything worked him up until the spring of 2014 when my internet lost residence. Finally moved to another residence in summer 2014 and has noticed that when using my laptop once again that Youtube videos and animated GIFs stretched and stuttered sound and froze my computer.

  Flash player, Java, Windows Media player and IE were affected. I tried to update all but settled is constantly interrupted by error messages. It all traces back to IE but can not enter say it or re-install / update. I rather not uninstall all of the programs mentioned above for fear of these programs is not able to install afterwards. Restorations and restores system were made but only up to a point (less than a month ago) and not to the most remote, with few results.

  Also somehow had internet limited during spring 2014 from time to time but Kaspersky failed to update normally and himself knocked out. Had to use his troubleshooting and Best Buy help re - install, but it was a successful installation. Perhaps something got through that affects those above apps but Kaspersky found nothing wrong.

  A question, someone of you recommended a total OS re - install at this point? Operating system is Windows 7.

If you are already on the latest graphics card drivers, uninstall and install a version or a few versions behind the last to make sure this isn't a last number one driver. If you have already experienced with the driver of the card later and earlier versions, please try the driver beta for your card.

• Wmplayer.exe in list of logon process and slow down my computer automatically

  Hello!

  All the minutes (and it can happen several times in a minute or two, then accompany minutes nothing happens) my mouse freezes and my computer "thinks" for a few seconds, as something that four-color or trying to open, only nothing is.

  I opened the Task Manager upward and looked at the list of processes, and "wmplayer.exe" opens and closes during this period.

  I found this problem in the Windows 7 forums, and that's exactly what I saw, only when running Vista and NOT 7.

  http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/w7performance/thread/d3e2abf1-1ebc-4048-b58e-f369b999c65c

  Edit: I did a few things. Originally, before the beginning of the process, I changed USB ports of the just in case, mice that did not work. I did several tests and checked the registry for a particular worm that seems to mimic some of these symptoms. I tried to open wmp to see if it is open it would attempt to run, which he did not. I also deleted the plugin Firefox wmp in case that is the question. None of them helped.

  Edit again: I took the step on the reference station and did a clean boot. This does not prevent the problem. Wmplayer.exe has always arisen as I explained above.

  Any ideas? Thank you!

  Hello!

  Just an update for those who have this problem.

  Nothing above helped at all. I had several people look at the computer, had many suggestions from different people, went up to remove wmp and synchronization of the computer, but nothing helps. I always had this problem.

  On a whim, a few days ago, I decided to try to buy a new mouse. Couldn't hurt, right? :) And here, I have not had the problem since. Try a new mouse! Worked for me.
