Specs: e6600@3ghz 4gbXMS2 GTX260 OC
Vista recently has been running very slowly, and even clicking on a new tab in Firefox, or switching between apps, even typing takes time - temporarily freezing the computer/sometimes even stoping audio playing and causing the mouse to skip.
For example, if I click on explorer windows too much they will start to show 'not responding'. The computer is almost unusable.
This has been a recent thing, but CPU usage remains very low.
RAM on the other hand remains peaked at 3.85gb according to task manager.
At the time of typing this:
I realize Vista is meant to use the ram, but it has never been constantly this high AFAIK.
In task manager however the combined memory usage is very low, with no application using more than 200,000K atm.
Hard Faults/sec ranges, and will go from 0/sec up to 400/sec and back again all the time when doing anything. Depending on what applications I am using hard faults/min can be 300-400 for the highest application (e.g. iTunes), but then almost instantly go to 1000-2000 (e.g. svchost atm is 1500 and syncserver.exe is 1100. They probably go higher when im not looking
Any tips?
Cheers!
