Slower than S*** Computer

Hey guyes how do you suggest I get my computer to run better? So as it is not lagging behind whenever I try to do anything? I think it has to do with there being some 58 opperations going on...This screenshot was taken while having ecgn web site up, taskmanager and windows media player playing some music..Whats the deal here? I have lots of viruse protection...Avast!, Norton, Zone alarm, and spybot...I really do not know what is causing it to be a top notch piece of shit....any help is appreciated, Thanks :violin:

Imagine your computer was Greg and start kicking it around. In the end, it might not help its performance - but it's alot of fun!

Was your computer always this slow?

Anything over 32 pro's running will LAG any pc... atleast in my experience. Don't know aobut fx53/5/7, etc serires, but i would amagine just doing the casual stuff, anything above 30/32 will slow just about anything though.

Little ap' called win patrol will see what you have running, what you don't want, etc etc.

Start dissabling them, the ones you don't need.

Should just get around to buying spysweaper, has all that plus spyware/ adware protection, but ad-aware/spybot didn't hurt nobody... lol.

Be aware several older applications will distort the resource utilization figures reported by task manager.

Lunatic, you have 53 processes running. When my PC is loaded, it shows 41 processes with 2% CPU (with IE and Firefox open, anti-virus, spyware protection, etc).

I'd say you have a process running amok. Post your tasklist.

It was obveosely much faster...It used to be able to run wolfenstein and a webpage and windows media play...now if i tryed that it would freeze up and I would have to completely turn it off then on...I know you said disable stuff...How do you perminently disable things?

I think if I could do that it would solve the problem... Thanks

Uh... you should not perminently shut down services, but if you REALLY want to

Start>Run>msconfig>services> go nuts. Just knwo what your shutting down.

Try out the Winpartol ap, it will give you a nice list with hklm path, corporation, other stuff.

Ps, thats ALOT of services running.

I also noticed that there were several programs running that were stuff I have never heard of...they were like 30,000 KB of memory so I think they should go. Im just interested in how I could get rid of them perm...

Lunatic, it would help a lot if you killed the Acrobat Reader task that's stuck running (AcroRd32.exe). That's a real resource hog.

You have suspicious programs running too. What the hell's "teatimer.exe"?

Good Question... :lol:

So how do you suggest I delete them so they stop rerunning on my computer because there is always 55 or so programs running even when I restart or whatever...
