PC is drastically slower since updates were installed
You can run System Restore from accessories, system tools
and fix this problem, just look for the day that you installed that update and choose a restore point before that time. -----Original Message----- I have a pentium 4, 2.53GHZ, 384 MB Ram PC with 9% of the hard drive in use and just recently in the last couple of weeks my PC is running much slower. I am having to wait so much longer for an application to start when an icon is clicked etc... The problems seem to have started since I installed some critical windows updates and other updates, noteably DirectX 9.0a. I have tried defraging the hard drive, using disk clean-up and scaning for errors using Norton Anti-virus all with no success in regaining my original speed. I cant use system restore to roll back to a good point since I dont have the relevant restore points available, only the most recent. Task manager indicates that I am always well within my systems limitations and that I have more than enough RAM etc available to use. Please help as it very frustrating. My Dads windows 95 is currently faster. Many Thanks Justin . |
