• Windows 7 Media Center very slow to load the program guide

  I run a Fujitsu Esprimo E3521 Core 2 Duo 2.93GHz with 2 GB of Ram. I use a dual DVB - T2 tuner card black gold. The PC works as expected with all other tasks (Netflix, iPlayer, MyMovies for Media Center), but when I first load the program guide, it takes more than 30 seconds before the system displays the guide and becomes sensitive (later loading times are a little faster, unless the PC is in "standby", in which case I face the same deadline when you enter the program guide). There is no other applications running on the system (the PC directly in the MC boots). Once the guide is loaded, it works at normal speed (sometimes channel tuning may take longer than expected, but usually he settles in a few seconds).

  I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate. Recently, I reinstalled the operating system and for a few days the PC seems to be running OK, but he soon return to be incredibly slow, loading guide. (I also started to notice that it takes longer time to start playback of recorded assets).

  Any help or pointers would be appreciated.

  Thank you very much

  Hi Richard,

  Welcome to Microsoft Community forum.  Let me help you with your concern.

  The information in the Guide is periodically downloaded from the Internet from your Guide list service provider. You are notified that "no data is available" in the Guide in the case either of the following things:

  • Windows Media Center cannot connect to the Internet and download the new Guide information for a long period of time, and the Guide information that was previously downloaded is corrupt or has expired. For more information, see solving problems with an Internet connection. (Applicable for Windows 7 alos article)
  • Guide information is not available for your location from the lists Guide service provider. For more information, see download updated Guide listings. (Applicable for Windows 7 alos article)

  I have upgraded from windows 7 to 8.1 and it was very slow, the drive is still in the use of 100.

• New installation of Windows 7 translates speeds very slow of the internet. Works in safe mode.

  3 weeks ago, I installed windows 7.

  For some reason, internet is super slow. I noticed right away because the download of the updates took forever. I thought it was because I need to install the NIC drivers, so I only have the first. It didn't fix it. Then, I searched and tried everything I could find online. The only thing that did work was that if I boot mode safe mode with network speed is very well .

  When I discovered that, in safe mode, everything was fine, that I started to disable any service that relates to networking. (As the Base and support Ip filtering engine, etc) This does not solve it so I decided to try the oppisite I started in safe mode with network and then loaded to the top of msconfig and any service that was not running in safe mode, I turned off. Thinking that I start one by one and find out what service was slowing downloads. When I booted in normal mode, the download speeds were still broken.

  So I continued then to disable services, I disabled all services which have to do with networking, and to enable windows.  (Things like the service that launches programs. Yes, any program that has not been opened I could not open.) Accordingly, I have concluded that it was not all services.

  This is a new installation, so I only installed firefox and flash. (no flash for the speed test) no anti-virus, etc.

  Here are a few screens of speed trials. These are actually kind of funny because the download is so fast that downloads.

  It is in safe mode with network speed. http://imgur.com/7VJvt

  It's the speedtest in normal mode, http://imgur.com/dDp5B

  So here's what I tried.

  • disabled auto-tuning
  • disabled IPv6
  • turned off homegroup
  • reinstalled drivers
  • drivers uninstalled (for default windows drivers)
  • Install different drivers (installed a game on the asus site) and the other on the nvidia site
  • disabled many services to many-on-list really out.
  • disabled Windows defender and windows firewall.
  • I bought new RAM with the win7 update so I tested to see if the RAM was bad. I ran Memtest86 + and it failed. So I took the new RAM and he run and all past. Still doesn't solve it.
  • I reinstalled.
  • I installed another network card.
  • I installed another version of Win 7. (Installed Win7 professional first and after Win7 Ultimate)
  • reinstalled the drivers again.
  • Disable all of the services.
  • A run anti-virus programs. To make sure that there are no viruses. There are not.
  • I connected directly to my router.
  • All the latest windows updates installed.
  • Checked online to see if my hardware is compatible with Win7 http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/Details.aspx?type=Hardware&p=ASUS%20P5N-D%20ATX%20-%20nForce%20750i%20SLI%20Motherboard&v=ASUS&uid=P5N-D%20BULK&l=en-US&pf=0&pi=0&s=P5N-D&os=64-bit

  FIXED!

  So I gave up and gave my computer to my friend at home and take a look. He brought me.

  What did do? He went out and bought a new network card. I guess that despite the windows NETWORK card drivers 7 I installed windows for some reason any dislikes the network card. (NVidia nForce 10/100/1000 Mbit / s) It is built in the nice for the card mother P5N - D.

  The funny thing is that 3 1/2 weeks, when I had the problem. I asked him what he thought and he said to go out and buy a new network card. When I hesitated to do so, he said he would buy the NIC if it did not work.

  In any case, I hope this helps someone maybe who has the same problem, I did.

• my windows media player is VERY slow to start, sometimes stops working, will not play some videos

  When I run the program it opens but will not play a song sometimes longer than 15 minutes. Stops working and the screen will sometimes foggy transparent white - I can still see the player, but he has a white on fog. Today, that happen when you try to copy a cd. -just a regular old cdr.

  Show first frame of video and play a sound but video does not move. Windows vista-home premium-toshiba.

  I suggest that you try to reset the media library. Note firstly reset the library will make you lose all play counts and ratings too. Then, follow these steps:

  -Restart the PC.
  -Click Start, type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER. In Services, locate the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service. If its status is started, double-click on the service and click on stop.
  -Click Start, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in the search field and press ENTER. This folder opens in Windows Explorer.
  -In this file, rename the old Media Player like Media Player folder. If you do not see the folder, then it is probably hidden. Set Explorer to view the hidden files and folders and show protected system files.
  -Launch WMP, your library will have been reset and will be rebuilt. Check if the problem persists.

• Windows 2008 Server boots very slow

  If I give the 3072 MB model there 1 minute and 40 seconds to start, which is a normal value? What are your values? why it takes so long if I add a bunch of memory?

  good point!, you should not normally need to start.

• Windows XP is very slow

  

  My Windows XP SP3 is very slow. It freezes often. This has happened since a year now. I tried the following:

  • System restore
  • Antivirus software
  • sfc/scannow command.
  • Disk Cleanup
  • ScanDisk
  • CCleaner
  • Defrag C:
  • Clean boot
  • Last good known Configuration

  Can someone help me please? Thank you.

  You said that it always happens with a clean boot, so the question is probably related to hardware and not software.  In this case, it's probably broken memory or some other hardware fault.

• Very slow speeds - Workstation 8.0.2 suspend

  I don't know if it something that I did, or the recent update of the workstation, but it is now still holding to suspend my (fairly large) guests. A guest of Vista is by far the most powerful, although a small enough guest of Windows 8 is also very slow.

  All my guests are split into 2 GB sizes and all have recently been "shrunk"---(erreur?). All are run under a Windows 7 host.

  Does anyone have advice to try to improve performance short dating back to 7 Workstation?

  > All what you have tried so far work?
  Hi Dave
  I had the same problems with suspend time WS 8 and 9.
  The only thing that has really worked to change my habbit use suspend rather than turned off when done with a virtual machine.

  With 9 WS, I expected that suspend one of my typical virtual machines may mean that the host can (often) to do nothing other than just suspension than a VM for a time up to 30 minutes or even an hour complete (often enough to see!)
  I tried everything I could think off, but nothing is really - I have never used WS so rarely that this version 9.

  I run 10 now and downtime are close to what we were used with 6.5 or 7

  If these problems seem to be fixed in WS 10 - at least for me.
  But before you change - control because WS 10 different problems

• Win2008r2 x 64 very slow VM running under Windows 7 Ultimate x 64

  I have searched in the nets and have seen similar problems. However, I just wanted to see if anyone has had the time to fix the issues that I am experiencing. Bascially,: the performance is so bad when you perform an initial installation developer that I shudder to think of what it will be like in normal use. You name: copies of the host is slow, running installs it variety takes an eternity, but the classic is when I installed windows 2008R2 x 64 has taken more than 6 hours to format the 80 GB drive, copy files across and complete the installation.

  In any case, I try to configure a 3.51 .NET / MOSS 2007 Developer of windows 2008R2 x 64 installation. I do this on a labtop to 2.2 Ghz AMD Turion X 2 recently acquired running Windows 7 Ultimate.x64. I have 4 GB of RAM and the usual WIFI Attheros. First of all, I chose VMWare Server 2.01 because it supports USB2 and 64-bit, instant clients while Virtual PC 2007 does ' t.

  Win2008R2 comments

  1. Memory of the VM value first 1 GB 2Gbto see if ifit makes much difference

  2. 2 vCPU

  3. CDROM installed

  4. VMWareTools... haven't tried to install it but page left summary seems to indicate I have not, not sure if it would substantially improve performance.

  5. Bridge networ_k_

  Things to try

  Looking at this networking wire Workstation 6.5 on Windows Vista x 64 host - bridged is broken! The performance of the network very slow folder shared! I should conider

  1. Check that in the laptop BIOS VT is enabled by default - I assumed it was.

  2. Reduction in the number of vCPUs to 1

  3. Drop the CDROM

  4. Ensure that VMWare Tools is fully installed

  5. Deactivation of windows 7 next host card connection network Local - & gt; Configure - & gt; Properties - & gt; Advanced: Large Send Offload v2 (IPv4) and Large Send Offload v2 (IPv6). Remember I'm toward the life of a wifi connection, so this may or may not have any effect

  6. Anything else anyone can think please...?

  I guess I just need some advice to help solve this painful problem, as it is to distract me from what I should do on the guest o/s...

  If you have done nothing yet, try first assign to VM 1 GB and 1 vCPU. Do never set more than 50% of memory available VM vive.

  About RDP: it connects OK? Check the system logs and firewall.
