Wtf


Recommended Posts

Ok Im going to ask the same question again since no one here out of the 3000 members did anything to help me. My problem is this.. at times my computer is fine, but lately it has become very slow. Loading quake and connecting to a server takes 10 minutes, and you can year the hardrive trying to load everything. 10 Minutes to load a game is too much, as is the 10 minutes to load up my computer. My system specs are as follows: 450mhz P lll, 128MB of RAM, 12.7 Generic Harddrive, and 64 MB GF2 MX. Dont say I need a new computer because this one is only 3 years old, and works fine. And I dont have any money so it wouldnt matter. Thanks.

i don't know what it could be but i suggest you get some more memory. Memory ain't that expensive. And i think it's about time you format!

nobody is obligated here to answer your questions so you have no right to demand anything.

read forum rules about proper post title.

upgrade your computer. 3 years is very old in computer terms.

in windows xp check if your page file is running (virtual memory) once my comp slowed down allot, and it fund that page file wasn't set, after that it started going back at full speed :)

also

1.defrag your drive

2.scan your registry for error (use the windoctor in norton utilities)

3.get the bootvis

4.find out how many and what programs are set to start with your computer, less is better

5.go to here to see if your comp needs some updates

good luck

What parts do you all upgrading? And Mxxcon I asked it in a demanding way because usually when I need help people just go "Wow that sucks" or "Get a new computer". I dont have much money (150 bux thats it) so my options are very limited.

dude, your pc doesn't need upgrading, so, you can't run the latest stuff but there is no reason why your pc should be so slow unless you are tryign to run loads of big programs at the same time

I agree the HDD is definately a possibility (most likely the prob). I just did a job for someone with that prob and as i was copying the data from old drive t new the old HDD crapped out. So i would say get a new HDD and load up windows XP. (and don't buy XP...find a place to d/l it) :D:D:D
