• PC running very slow XP after installing SP3, can I reinstall?

  My PC is turned sssslloooowwwwwlllyyy both since the installation of SP3.  I do not want to troubleshoot SP3 for now, so can I remove and reinstall?  My PC is quite old in years of PC, but performance has been acceptable for me up until SP3 came.

  Thank you

  It is important to disable programs such as Webroot before installing SP3. Personally, I prefer to install the stand-alone version of SP3 while I'm offline and after setting up a clean boot:

  If you want to solve your problem of performance, set up a CleanBoot and systematically add back programs/process until you figure out the problem:

• Lenovo Ideapad Y560 very slow just after the start

  Hello!

  I have a weird problem with my laptop Ideapad Y560 (2 years). I was wondering if any of you have a similar problem and looking for a possible solution.

  As soon as I start the laptop (either), it is very slow for the first 3-4 minutes. Nothing to really works or opens, it hangs for a while and runs my entries of keyboard and mouse with a considerable delay. After this period of 3-4 minutes, it works perfectly fine, also responds well/crisp as the lappy was brand new. I can't understand why he behaves in this way.

  I almost never stop the laptop and generally just put it to sleep. However, I have this problem (as described above) if I turn on the lappy a stop or a State of sleep also. Anyone seen this before? Could someone please suggest possible solutions? Any help is very appreciated! Thank you!

  Try the manual cleaning of Windows and then follow-up with defrag.

• No internet after installing xp sp3

  Original title: I installed XP SP3 and it seems to have erased all my network connections. Now will not set up new so I have no internet access... Any ideas?
  Had a recurring problem with the crash of the PC. This was resolved after I installed SP3, but the installation seems to have wiped my network connections. If I run the wizards to build their new it simply refuses to do so. I tried to reinstall my router, but that did no good.

• Satellite Pro U400 - micro reception problem after installing xp sp3

  I had Vista, then I recently installed windows XP SP3 from scratch (not downgraded). I downloaded the latest drivers from Toshiba and install. Now, I have a problem with the microphone. Speakers audio playback is fine, but the built-in microphone reception level is very low and often unrecognizable. I use a voip program. In Vista, micro worked better.

  Now in Windows XP Home edition, I told myself that they cannot hear me or my voice is very weak and difficult to recognize. I also tried to sound recorder in windows. My voice is as if I am talking about ten meters.
  I have an external microphone, so I can't say if line microphone. works well.

  In messages previous people mention a fix for xp download his questions but I'm not sure if applies to my situation.

  Thank you

  Erdem

  Hello Erdem

  As I see you have CD/DVD for Windows XP SP3 home edition recovery facilities. Everything worked well with the original recovery image? I have way is there a reason why you installed the new driver?
  Were you informed of the new drivers (Tempro) somehow?

  You have installed the drivers who exactly?

• Satellite A85 S1072: Very slow OS after installation of new

  Hello
  I have problem with my laptop. It is a technical issue. Recently, my system crashed and I reinstalled system, now I have problem with speed and works, when I install some programs or copy the file into different space, the system is slow and it's look like a block for a while.

  example: I have 2 partitions when I copy a large file like 400 MB of partision partision 1 2 I have like 50 kbytes 1200 KB transfer.

  I tested my system with the tool of diagnosis PC Toshiba program and he said: it's an OK status with the material. I used some more flavor called Easy Recovery professional programs to test my hard drive and the status is OK.

  What do you thing about my problem. That's the problem with my hard drive or motherboard? you know any problem to test some of those things to help me.
  Very thanks for the reply.

  Next time.

  Notebok parameters: 256 ram, 40 GB drive, processor 1.4 GHZ.

  Hello

  Your device comes pre-installed with a Toshiba recovery media?
  I would recommed to check the HARD disk.
  You can try to use some HDD monitoring tools. Googled around.

• Very slow computer after the latest updates

  Hello

  I've updated one of my PCs running Vista x 64 updates of security two days ago.
  Now that the systems takes more than 15 minutes just to start at the opening screen of session and as much time again to get on the desktop.
  The mouse cursor is always fast as usual, but everything else including the caret blink time is super slow.

  This is a really clean system which is used strictly for dedicated 3D work, so he has nothing but Max, EU3 and WinZip on it.  It is not used for Internet access.
  No hardware or software changes attempted in several months, other than updates Windows System.
  Intel C2Q Q6600, 8 GB 1066 RAM, NVidia 8800GTS 512, WD 500 GB HD, ASUS P5K mobo.

  I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem with updates, especially as it's really painful trying to solve the problems since that it literally takes hours to try whatever it locate either changes the problem.  I'll do a wipe and reinstall if I have to spend a lot more time with reboots, it will be faster.

  I am answering my own question here... :-)
  Maybe it will help someone else and save a few hours of work waiting for the slow start to fix things.

  For those who are interested: the OS is Vista Home Premium x 64. Material has been listed above. It is a high-end with hardware system high range, coolers, cases, power supply, etc.
  This is not a system of job full time, it is used only for specific work I usually do a few hours on one or two days a week.

  I timed it really starts the Welcome screen and it is more than 45 minutes. lol :-D
  I pulled off the side of the case and noticed that the HDD was just chewing on something.
  Start in safe mode was also just as painfully slow as standard start (argh).

  Regarding the updates of Windows, I have this system set to inform only, so I only install updates at the end of all the days that I work on the computer. Where my assumption that it's a matter of update that caused the problem, since nothing ever changes, on this subject - files are still saved out to a network server.

  However, once I could get on the computer, I noticed that I had also installed Windows Live Mail top the same day I did the updates of Windows (two days ago). WLM has been installed just to get a screenshot of it for my blog, it was never really used for Internet e-mail, it should be uninstalled some time on one of the next system bootups.

  Then... Installation apparently a combination of WLM or the latest Windows updates has completely borked something on the computer starts.
  I got my DVD of Vista, it started, ran the Startup Repair. Now, the system works very well. WLM has been uninstalled in the case where it has been part or all of the guilty.
  As with a PC, it could be something to do with the specific hardware and software configuration, the order of WLM and updates installed, specific updates installed, etc..

  I would recommend that anyone with a similar configuration be sure to install WLM or updates in the estate where they fall in the same question.
  Just don't panic if you have problems, try a DVD Vista Startup Repair. :-)

• Use high processor after installing XP SP3.

  Original title: XP and Service Pack 3

  After you install service pack 3, there is demand of 100 percent on the CPU and system idle is at 99 percent. Service pack Uninstall and re-installation of service pack 2 resolves the memory leak? Computer slows down the equivalent of a pentium 75.

  This seems to be the norm with users of AMD in various forums on the net.

  Closed all programs, suspended, startup programs and of the cpu is at 100%. I even tried a reformat and a clean install to resolve possible conflicts, software and hardware, unplug everything except the local drive / logic.

  It is so hard to install Windows 8, and solve it can put an end to a mass of complaints of installation failures that many are asked to cover. Which I am part.

  I'm under MB, AMD 1.8, 3000 + Ram / 2 concerts. A basement and old configuration, but this problem is not limited to the mine, but dual and quads as well. Anyone have any ideas?

  After you install service pack 3, there is demand of 100 percent on the CPU and system idle is at 99 percent.

  This sentence is a virtual contradiction.  You seem to misunderstand the meaning of "The system idle process."  Idle = not active or in use.

  If the System Idle process is at 99%, so there is a demand of 1% on the CPU.

  In fact, no..  :-)
  I saw the performance of the Task Manager tab shows 100% CPU activity. And everything grinds to stop. Then I go to the processes tab and no process is proved be using these cycles. And Yes, SystemIdleProcess is wrong showing that 99%.
  It is almost always the result of the presence of malware (which is intended to be as invisible as possible). Of course, it could also be the result of an update failed due the presence of greedy of security software, as you reminded me in your message. :-)

• Very slow performance after P2V

  Hi all

  We did a P2V of a server and after his conversion, he must have very high use of the processor and extremely slow performance as a virtual machine. We did it,

  1. all cleanings after P2V.

  2. VMware tools update.

  3. an increase in the CPU, RAM.

  Nothing seems to work, any help please.

  Thank you

  Please confirm that you have removed the old equipment after P2V and all related material linked from the drivers, utilities, officials.

  1. open a Windows command prompt and type the following command:

  set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1
  

  This sets an environment variable that tells the Device Manager to display all the devices.

  2. at the same command prompt, type

  devmgmt.msc
  

  You can also try to run msconfig and disable microsoft non-related services to help you identify what could be the cause of the problem.

  • On the Services tab
  • Select "Hide all Microsoft Services"
  • Click on "disable all".
  • Mark the VMware vCenter Converter Agent
  • Mark the VMware vCenter Converter Server
  • Click 'apply '.

• Slow startup after installing the SSD because gray screen

  I just installed a Samsung Evo 500 GB SSD in my Macbook Pro 2010. I went to start and it starts very slowly due to a gray screen just sat there for about 30 seconds and then it shows the apple logo and it takes another 15 seconds to load. The gray screen did not appear before installing the SSD but the Apple logo did take longer to load with the HARD drive. I used SuperDuper to clone my my SSD HARD drive and installed the SSD and it starts normally. The only issue was the gray screen. I've heard that I need to go into system preferences and select Startup disk, then my boot drive, but there is no choice. Help, please.

• Satellite A660 - slow start after installing Win7

  I have an A660. Satellite (model aus)

  I installed the 64 bit version of windows 7 and starting to take more than a minute. I was wonderign if I used a retail drive and used the serial number at the back of the computer laptop would it not be a better facility.
  Then, I would install just the stuff I need.

  Also, so I use a commercial version would drive recovery based HARD stop working? (because the commercial version may overweite some entries written in the section the drive boot HARD-now if I press 0 he goes to setup - if rerail version replaces this function would stop working?)

  Thanks heaps.

  Each Toshiba laptop comes with the Toshiba recovery image. This recovery image contains several specific Toshiba and utility tools that begin with OS and also some additional software.

  What you need now is the right configuration. With other words, you can remove the unnecessary software from the system and stop all applications, you need the startup list t.
  How to do this?
  Press WIN + R > write msconfig and confirm with OK. The system configuration will be open. Go to the Startup tab and clear the check box in front of app you n t need initially to the top.

  Of course, you can install a clean version of the OS, but for product activation, you can use the product key from the sticker. This license is for the version of Windows that you have with your laptop.
  HDD recovery works with the factory only settings. When you install the clean operating system, you will not be able to start. What you need to do is to create recovery DVDs after Toshiba s instruction how to do this.

  If you have any other questions please let us know.

• Time very slow start after the restoration in car merger

  Hello

  Recently, I restored my drive of Fusion to 2 because Windows blew it all this when I tried to restore from a System Image (please see here: retrieve Windows System Image in Boot Camp 10). Basically, the HDD and SSD separated and I rebuilt the volume logic and any group. Now start up time in the OS X partition are pretty slow, so are usually use during the first minutes - sort of like Windows startup.

  My questions:

  1 should I I have recreated OS X for the SSD disk Fusion part? Or I just guess I should install it on the part of the HARD drive and the drive of the merger would 'do its magic' and, in time, to transfer files relevant starting it on its own?

  2 installing/restore OS X on the SSD portion would solve the problem?

  Thank you

  Bruncky

  I solved this with Apple Support cat in the end. Basically, you can just boot into Recovery Mode, reformat the HARD disk, and retrieve OS X directly on the SSD.
