• Computer slows way down after trying to open internet explorer, then will not be closed.

  I look through the posts and have not found someone who had my same problem still. I hope someone can help me. A few weeks ago, I bought a new gateway laptop and it has Windows 7. It works great until a few days ago. Day before yesterday, I tried to open Internet Explorer 8 and I just got a white screen with the border of IE, but it did not open a page or anything like that. I opened the Task Manager and allows to close the IE. I had that happen in the past (in XP) when I tried to open internet until the computer is carried out all the stuff at the start of the loading. Thinking that was the problem, I tried to open IE again. This time I just got the little thing of circle of rotation for a few seconds, as he was trying to do something, but nothing happened. I then tried to restart the computer. He says "disconnect" for a few minutes, then "shutting down" for about half an hour until I finally pressed right on the power button to turn it off. I have it turned on and had the same problem again. I even tried to open another program (Word) to see if it would work. Finally opened, it was ridiculously slow. I checked the process and it is said there are CPU usage 0. However, he acts like something using all the memory. My next step was to remove the battery. I took it out for a few minutes, restarted in safe mode, and the computer works perfectly. I then restarted it regularly. It seemed to work fine. I opened Word again and she appeared right as usual. So then I tried to open internet. I had the same problem as before, and then the computer slowed to a crawl and would not shut down. Thinking maybe it was just IE, I rebooted in safe mode with network and my internet works perfectly. I downloaded Firefox (in safe mode), perhaps hoping it would work. But when I rebooted, I always had the same problem. Everything worked fine when I got it in safe mode, even on the internet. If someone has had this problem before, please help! I just bought the computer a few weeks ago and it's very frustrating.

  Hi tonirose19

  ·         As the problem does not occur in safe mode, try to start the computer to the boot in order to check if any third-party application is causing the problem. To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  Steps to perform the clean boot and check if you have the problem.

  i. Click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

  II. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.

  III. in the general tab, click Selective startup.

  IV. under Selective startup, clear the Load Startup items check box.

  v. click on the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft Services check box, and then click disable all.

  VI. click OK.

  VII. When you are prompted, click restart.

  VIII. after the computer starts, check if the problem is resolved.

  If the problem is resolved check what third party causing the problem, referring to the link given below: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135

  Reset the computer to start as usual

  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  i. Click Start, type msconfig.exe in the start search box and press ENTER.

  II. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.

  III. on the general tab, click the Normal startup option and then click OK.

  IV. When you are prompted to restart the computer, click restart.

• Computer slow and unresponsive

  original title: behave differently

  Sometimes the computer behaves differently... as applications closing automatically etc, all of a sudden, unresponsive, slow down and the problem persists until I reboot...

  my computer is completely virus free and is brand new...

  This can be caused by many things, but if the computer is new while I'd take in warranty service or replacement if they cannot solve the problem (for the seller or the manufacturer or anywhere where a place to make a claim).  What you do yourself could void the warranty and you don't want that.  It could take hours to check to try to find this kind of problem and we can still find empty - there is no simple solution to this type of problem.  It will be very difficult to identify and fix yourself, even with our help and general troubleshooting procedures.  It might even be a hardware problem, in which case a replacement of the device problem or the computer under warranty is justified and that you must consider in service anyway.

  If it is brand new, not to take risks and take advantage of the guarantee, there is always.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

• computer slow and freezes

  My computer became very slow start.  After the screen saver has been for a while, it hangs and I have to unplug it to stop it.  Sometimes when I click on an icon on my quick launch need me somewhere else.  This happened about a week

  Some reasons for the slow pace of the computer:

  1. computer has not been maintained - http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Maintenance

  2. the computer is infected with the malware - http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Removing_Malware

  3. the disk is too full. Remove useless stuff, uninstall unused programs. Do not forget to save!
  http://www.elephantboycomputers.com/page2.html#Backing_Up

  4. flaky third party software. Toolbars and modules are particularly guilty in this area. Uninstall toolbars (Google, Yahoo, ISP brand, etc) and look at what modules are in use in your browser (s).

  5. computer has too many unnecessary programs/processes running in the background. Manage your Startup:

  For XP - How to troubleshoot using the Msconfig in Windows XP utility - http://support.microsoft.com/?id=310560
  The free Autoruns program is very useful for managing your Startup - http://www.microsoft.com/technet/sysinternals/default.mspx

  For Vista/Windows7 - Start Orb > Search box > type: msconfig and when it appears in the results area above, right-click and choose 'run as administrator '. Autoruns is also very useful.

  6. the user runs an inflated/invasive such as Norton and McAfee antivirus program. Replace it with a better program. I recommend NOD32 (commercial) or Avast (free). Avira is also good, but the free version has an unpleasant reminder screen (Google for instructions on how to disable it). The user can also run several real-time antivirus/firewall/security programs.

  7. the user has installed new programs that are processor and/or memory-intensive (Photoshop, AutoCAD, Mathmatica or similar) and does not have the power of the equipment.

  8 drive fails and is in PIO Mode (IDE only - not applicable for disks SATA drives). It's very much slow (like being in 1985). See Hans-Georg Michna here information -http://winhlp.com/?q=node/10

  If the hotfix registry PIO only 'glue' (or you have a SATA drive), the drive is probably faulty and needs to be tested.

• Why are my programs so slow and why I always disconnected from games?

  My computer is not working so slowly and I won't always be disconnected, but now whenever I enter the game I get disconnected immeadiately.

  Hello

  • This happens with online games?
  • In what programs you are facing this problem?
  • What were the changes made before the show?
  • What version of Windows are you using?

  I recommend you perform the clean boot.
   
  Configuration of your system in a clean boot state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem. If so, you need to maybe contact the manufacturer of the program for updates or uninstall and reinstall the program.

• Update of Windows Media Player stopped because it made my computer slow and now can't copy a CD

  The constant update of the Player Windows Media caused me go into options and uncheck the library update that didn't work so then I went to the library to manage and delete music files, photos, videos etc, which made the stop of Windows Media updated, but now I cannot rip CDs and an error message saying "Windows Media player cannot extract one or more tracks. the CD"that has occurred only since I took these actions.  I tried to back up my library, but the program I Include leaves nothing or I don't need to put in place the correct files.  Help, please!

  Hi Imogen...

  Updates to the WMP library can slow performance, but if you want to extract the music you need to have a default save location which will usually be the music folder.

  Under 'Organize' - managing libraries - music - click on the 'Add' button and restore the 'music' (or my music) by default and then click OK. The library must rebuild. Come back if you're still stuck, however. -Cheers, Ric.

• Why my computer slows down

  09 August to the a few weeks ago, I had a modem for internet on my computer. As we know, dialup is very slow. But a few weeks ago I had my digital internet on and things have accelerated. But I'm having a problem with some Web pages. It seems that whenever I try to open more than 1 page, or I come to a page that has a lot of objects in motion on it, everything slows to a crawl. I used to now have this problem when I had internet faster before. I downloaded the latest versions of Adobe Flash player, shockwave last, more recent readers Real and Quicktime, and yet my computer slows down. I need to update any other thing or what? Or I did my updates get corrupted when I had access to remote and if yes, how to say? Thank you

  Hi miles,

  I want to start by saying that all the options of the Internet high speed are not equal. You could see the right speed for the connection you have.

  But... There are a few things we can look at to make sure that your system runs as quickly as possible. Your system seems to work "eye catching" or "flange" in its use of local emissions? :-)

  Let start by resetting IE to default values and to see where we are.

  Close IE, print or copy these suggestions...
  Click on START and type > Internet options > press enter
  On the general tab, click on delete... > default options should be good for this. Click on delete.
  When you are finished, click the Advanced tab. Under reset Internet Explorer settings section, press the Reset... button.
  In the tab programs, click on Manage Add-ons
  Disable toolbars like MSN or Google. Toolbars are known to cause problems.

  Launch IE and give it a go and let us know what happens. Mark <> Microsoft Partner
