I am having a similar problem. Except my CPU is running hotter.
AMD 2800+
1 Gig of DDR 333mhz
ATI Radeon 9800
Heatsink: currently AMD specific fan
Anyway, I noticed my comp. would shut down. I wondered if it was my ATI card overheating. I reinstalled the drivers and tried checking the temp...
Reporting back...
As you know from the other topic XP 'Hanging' ... the BIOS flash didn't work.
I am wondering now if it is a Hardware issue. More importantly an over heating CPU (currently about 55 Cel./128 Fara.).
Either that, or a failing Hard Drive. Which again, is hard to believe but I...
bcastner,
I am still having problems. I thought the BIOS flash did it, but apparently it didn't. I booted this evening to slowness and Apps running slow.
Argh. Here's a thought... is it possible that if a CPU is running hot that there could be an issue? (Basically, no matter what you do.)...
Hey guys! I think I fixed it. I uninstalled everything that wa a recent program.
I uninstalled and reinstalled my Video Card driver.
Modified Services per suggestions from Black Viper.
Defragged and used BootVis.exe
My last ditch effort before I reinstalled the OS and wiped the HD clean...
Good on details (for the most part), bad on paying attention to the Html tag/typos until it's too late (slaps self for an UGLY post for others to read).
Anyway, I think I fixed it. Flashed the Bios for my A7N8X Deluxe and it seems to be running MUCH smoother.
I will update if things...
Please help!
Okay, this is a strange thing. I am starting to wonder if a piece of Hardware is going bad.
[b]Problem:[b/] Slower boot than about 3-5 days ago. Runs applications MUCH slower than it use to about 3-5 days ago.
Recently installed Quicken 2002 Delux, Adobe 7.0 (upgrade), and...
I haven't tried Defrag yet.
After boot the only Application running is my Hercules Fortissimo II sound card.
Nothing fancy... I always go very basic (Blue background) with no effects or add-ons -- so not to bog down my machine.
CPU process is nearly 100% (about 95-98%, if memory servers). No...
Can anyone comment on this issue relative to Slow Boot and Slow Running of Applications/Programs?
For me it's a recent occurence. Trying to figure out before I wipe the system.
I installed 2 programs recently that I have since uninstalled, and nothing. I tried tweaks last night to minimize...
I am having a similar issue and any help can be appreciated.
It use to boot fine, quick...not a problem. Now it boots slower than my Win2000 machine that is running an AMD 1800+.
It runs applications slower and more importantly it really runs my online game slower (Dark Age of Camelot). Yeah I...
