windows performance

I just purchased an HP laptop with a 128 GB M.2 SSD Hard Drive. Besides the original setup and adding some basic programs, I've done very little in a week. But my C: Drive has already used 42% (only 69GB free) A further disk analysis shows that, of the total used, Windows has used 30%...

I never had the high Kernel & System CPU usage, but I saw this issue on a friend's computer. The process with PID 4 had a high CPU usage. But that issue solved itself. However, how is disabling HDD timeout (spin down after ** minutes) meant to solve the CPU usage issue? How is it related?

How can I investigate possible cause/s for 'Not enough memory'? I frequently encounter this but when I check the task manager, used virtual and physical memory didn't even reach half of the available memory. thank you.

My PC was extremely sluggish and it was so slow it was a long struggle to open one file or run a program. I ran anti virus tests etc and eventually reinstalled Windows. It is better but still freezes on opening a folder and whereas as before this happened boot time was 30 seconds or less now...

I'm sure there is a thread somewhere regarding my issue, but the issue is too general for me to fine-tune my search and find it. So, for that, my apologies. My issue is this: 2 year old build been working just fine. Suddenly now I'm getting many programs "Not Responding", screen goes pale...

General Question - I think I've tweaked the system about as far as I can know how to do right now - disabled Aero - done other things using Black Vipers tweaks and configurations and still at startup Win7 is running 350 megs. I like Win7 and memory is sort of a problem as I only have 1gig - but...

I ended processes such as lsm.exe and a prompt came up telling me what Windows has encountered a critical problem and that it will restart in one minute. Even though the process has ended (and remains closed), Windows OPERATES PERFECTLY FINE AND NORMALLY. Why does Windows have to shut down...

This whole incident started today. Firstly, my computer's ram usage was perfectly fine (Less than 2GB Ram usage), I left my computer on for 3 hours, I came back and noticed that everything started to run really slow, I noticed that my ram usage skyrocketed to 5.8GB Ram usage. (My Computer has...

I'm hoping someone can help me solve a problem I'm having. Whenever I want to install a program, my computer takes forever to show the window that guides you through the installation. For example, I download Firefox, Double-click the .exe installation package and then nothing happens for...

Hi. I am running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit edition and keep on having slow startups. I traced the latest problem to the following error in the event log: Event 100, Diagnostics-Performance Can anybody help diagnose the boot log that i copied below the Event information? Any help is appreciated...

Did anyone ever find it useful to change a process priority? I never did. When I encode full HD video in Encore, it takes a lot of CPU power and even if I watch an HD movie on KMplayer, it has a little stutter. I tried lowering the Encore process priority and I also tried raising the...

I've got a Windows 7 Pro 64 bit system (6.1.7600.16385) with a bit of an issue. It's a high end, RAID 1 (hardware configured) system. Quad core Xeon and 8GB ram... I need this system to stay running until I tell it otherwise..... but it's not. I always disable Windows updates, just for this...

Can someone please take a peek at my bootlog below and let me know if there is anything that may be causing the boot time to be VERY SLOW. It's so slow that you need to measure how long it takes on a geological timeline (you know the one that has a caveman on one end and an astronaut on the...
