Pictures Lagging Constantly: Internet Pages Loading Slow Too?
Aug 7, 2009
I'm getting this perpetual lag issue. Windows folders and internet pages load slowly load slowly, and the mouse cursor responds to clicks when it feels like it. I've checked the mouse, and that's not the problem. I checked Task Manager and downloaded Process Explorer, but I never see more than 15% usage at a time. I've also run AVG for viruses/malware, but nothing comes up. I've had similar problems before, when a piece of hardware died, but so far I can't find any conflicts.
i just replaced my hard drive and installed all the software: but when i put in a search on any Browser - it is taking 20 to 30 seconds to load the page? but i have a 20 meg download speed. what do i have to do to rectify the problem.
I gave my old computer to my parents. It's extremely slow loading pages and programs. How can I delete everything but the OS and Microsoft Office and start fresh? I've tried to add/remove programs but it does not help. I've tried Registry Clean but it does not help.
I recently downloaded numerous IE updates and I believe my problems started there.I've run numerous software programs: Spysweeper by Webroot System Mechanic, Pest Patrol AdAware Spyware Doctor All of which haven't solved the problem. I've even run a dllfix that has produced no results as well. I have WindowXP home edition. I can go to certain websites and they will instantly load no problems, other sites just do not load correctly. I have broadband and it is acting like dial-up to the tee. It seems that the frequently viewed sites have less trouble than lets say a site I pull up through a news site or other. My computer is normally lightning speed when moving through the internet. No pop-up problems or the like.I've tried looking up a thread on here close to the problems I am having but to no avail I haven't found anything similar to my exact situation. On my system mechanic I picked up and disabled a hotkeycommand process along with a Igfxtray program.
I'm having trouble with pages not loading when I'm on the internet using Netzero and Internet Explorer. It seems to be secure pages mostly (every time I want to order something online, or when I go to a company's application center and try to apply for a job.I am on my second printer (HP 3740). Granted, it's not top of the line, but I just bought it because my old one was broken (I thought) and now it is starting to have the same problems as the last one, and the problems started about a week after I bought it. It started with the printing getting faded, like the cartridge was running out of ink, then it went through the motions of printing but no ink was on the paper. Next it will stop moving, even though the power light comes on.
I have a cable connection and lately I have notice that most of my internet pages are laoding painfully slow. I have clean up the temp files, cache and have check for adware/spyware. I am directly connect to the cable modem so there is no interference with a router. My cable provider says there is no "packet loss" when they ping by IP. They suggest that it is something to do with my PC any suggestions?
My IE7's been running really slow starting this past week. I don't know what the cause is exactly. I can't figure out if it's the IE software on the PC or if it has something to do with the internet connection. I've run the following to diagnose my problem: NAV 2007 - No Viruses Webroos SpySweeper - No Spyware Optonline speedcheck Utility (when I can get it to run) - the results are very good 13-15mbps down and ~1.5mbps up. I would've posted this last night, but I couldn't get the page to load and even the optonline homepage sometimes wouldn't load. Also, I've noticed that images aren't loading onto the web pages. Just getting a box with an "x" in it. Don't remember if that is an IE security setting that i just need to allow or a an invasion to my system. I reset the IE7 settings to clear anything within IE, but that just made me lose my settings and IE still ran slow and inconsistently. I've checkd the ADD/Remove list and the list of folders within the program files folder and I've found nothing bad has been installed on the sly. Not really sure if this is a problem with optonline's signal or if I've gotten something on my PC that just isn't getting found by NAV and spysweeper. I'm trying to hold off on restoring my system image file, but if I must. I'd like totry to diagnose this if I can.
Since I installed SP2 everything seems OK except I now notice that some web pages will load only part way then stop loading. If I use Firefox and go the same page it loads immediately. Is there some security setting I should aware of that prevents some pages from loading? The last page I had a problem with was one associated with Paint Shop Pro - hardly a suspicious website. I like Firefox, but unfortunately my password manager (Norton) doesn't work with it.
I keep getting this message ( especially on my online course page ) that says Object moved this object may be found here. and here is a link. When I click on here it says this
Directory Listing Denied
This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed. My computer is a compaq presario. I have windows xp service pack one I use a cable connection. I have a friend that has the same cable connection and is in the same online class and she has never had this happen to her. I was wondering if anyone knows why I keep getting this message and if there is a way to keep it from doing this. It just started doing this about a month ago.
I have a friend who lives in another part of the country so I cannot actually get to her computer. Over the past two weeks we have sent e-mails back and forth trying to find a solution to the problems she is having. When she first starts up her computer and connects to the Internet (she is using WinXP Pro and a USB modem connected to braodband) she can surf webpages OK and get to her Yahoo webmail account.However, after about 5 to 10 mintues, if she tried to get to a webpage again, including Yahoo, she gets a "page cannot be displayed" message and it is impossible for her to load any webpages at all.The Internet connection is still connected, she can send and receive e-mails using OUtlook Express, but she cannot get web pages to load anymore.We have cleared the caches, done antivral and spyware scans using several different programs (her system is clean) and have tried using both Internet Explorer and Firefox.
Both browsers "freeze" after a time and she gets the error messages saying pages cannot be displayed.Sometimes when she reboots her PC and connects to the Internet she can get web pages to load again but after a time surfing "freezes up" and webpages no longer load. BUT, as I said, the Internet connection is obviously fine because it does not affect the sending or receiving of e-mails using Outlook Express.
I just recently started having trouble with computer moving slow. When i boot up it seems fine. I have cable connection. When i go into websites like msn it takes forever for me to get into anything. I ran spybot and removed a BUNCH of stuff. But it is still happening. Do I need to stop stuff at start up? If so how do I know what to stop? How can I find out what's running in the background?I know nothing about computers other than mines slow all of a sudden.
I'm not sure what's been happening lately, but my laptop has been running kind of laggy and slow. My specs are as follows:I initially thought that my computer would only slow after I started Trillian, but I tested this (by not starting Trillian), and it seems it will still slow a few minutes after a restart. Restarting my laptop seems to solve this problem temporarily.Keeping it in safe mode (I'm posting in Safe Mode w/ Networking right now) seems to also keep the problem at bay.
I have had my Windows XPfor 4 years. Now let me just says its Slow and always crashes and now the toolbar is freezing. How do i solve the problem? So far i have tried:But it’s still slow and crashes all the time. Any one know what the problem is? Also tried a system restore but it still goes slow.
* Ad Ware Check * Spy Ware Check * Virus Check * Cleaning up the Hard drive * Disk Defragmenter
My laptop has recently been lagging severely and randomly disconnecting from the internet. It hasn't done this before and when I scan with my antivirus it doesn't find anything. But when I run my computer in safe mode I have no problems at all, so its probably a virus.
I got a new motherboard installed because my old one fried itself and the pc was reformatted and windows was reinstalled. Since then, it was working fine. The start-up time had also lowered considerably and it was working perfectly for once.One thing that's been happening for a while, my computer started taking longer to start-up. I figured it was just all the programs etc I have installed. Then, I have this one external drive that I got connected internally. There were times where it wouldn't recognize this drive; it wouldn't show up on My Computer. Otherwise, it was perfectly fine. one of my most important drives (E) has been missing for the last 2 days. it hasn't shown up even once and i'm really worried i've lost data and need to recover it.
Running an e6600 everything good, then I ran some malware scans then trouble started. Every minute or so, my computer will lag for 2-3 seconds. Example, 1. I click on a link nothing happens for 2-3 seconds or 2. I type address into my web browser, and letters don't show up for 2-3 seconds. Anyone know what's wrong? Possibly hard drive going to die?
The normal loading time is about 1-2 seconds. Loading time has been ranging from 2 to 45 seconds from start menu, desktop shortcuts, and Windows Explorer. All other programs load normal speed 1-4 seconds. My Documents, which I use the most often, is the worst. Doesn?t appear to depend on how many programs/windows are open or if I am on the internet. Using AVG Free antivirus-no infections found, except 20 or so level 3 cookie/yieldmanagers when loading Internet Explorer/Firefox. No recent changes to the computer. Only 5% of hard drive being used. Spybot/Adaware/AVG run every couple of days. This has been happening for 17 days, tried several previous system restore points--no effect. Defragged?although XP indicated this unnecessary. I use an APC battery backup. Scan Disk run several days ago--no problems found. This morning working normally for first time since problem began (no action taken)?yesterday loading times varied from 4-35 seconds throughout the day.
My computer is so slow and constantly freezing...I constantly get a pop up warning about virtual minimum being too low, i went in and checked and the min was like 256 and the max was 5hundred something....I have scanned with avg, and housecall...nothing, I scanned with spybot, ad-aware, and Microsoft anti spyware...NOTHING...which i find it hard to believe im not accumulating any spyware but whatever... so 9i upgraded to high speed...No difference whatsoever... I am ready to throw this thing out the window... I was thinking of reformatting, but my mom sent me here instead....
why doesnt my computer retain the correct time. everyday my xp machine is up to an hour slow and everyday i resync it just to have it happen again.do i have a virus?
Things are really screwy in St Louie...I don't know what the heck i have done, but things are really crazy. I cannot view web pages, everything is moving extrememly slow. I did a system restore, and that at least has let me access the internet.
My computer has really been slow last couple days. Loading programs and pages off and online. Pages not closing properly, i.e. freezing on screen then disappearing slowly
my PC is very sensitive....when left idle it takes about 5 minutes just to changes web pages.Sometimes it is running well, sometimes it is really slow. I am using windows XP and have firewall and AVG. Can anybody help?
I have posted this problem before and haven't really gotten it resolved. My computer takes so long to load pages its driving me crazy. I feel like I am on dial up. it takes like a minute for a page to load. I have tried the AFT cleaner
I have two pc laptops on one everything is great, in color and you can view everything as you would expect ie tab options and backgrounds. on the second (compaq presario 2200 laptop windows xp home) you cannot see tab options and internet page backgrounds, borders, tabs are all white and the text is in back or white text boxes (colour is also shown on the pages) i have tried to show axtive x etc and i do not have anything like norton oporating. i have been through nearly every setting but cannot work out why my laptop is veiwing its display like this and how to ammend it.
Internet Explorer Problem. It was an Add-Ons problem but I can't seem to fix it.When I am in the original window of Internet Explorer and I click on a link that opens a new window. When I want to close the new window it will close down all of Internet Explorer and leave a Blank Page. Then it will want to report the error. It did not used to do this. It seemed to have started happening about the time I upgrade IE and they started the new tabs. I work online and I need it to stay open. I also need to be able to close those extra windows so i don't have to many piling up. It is really bogging down my work.
I accidently downloaded auto windows updates of SP2 which I did not want to do. My problems with IE and OE(Have windows XP HOme edition) constantly freezing and closing out with error reports started then. It's getting MUCH WORSE AND MORE FREQUENT. I have resisted and not downloaded any more SP2 auto updates since.I do virus and spy checks daily--no problems there; no new software recently installed.
I have windows XP HOme Edition; Outlook Express 6.0.Awhile ago, I accidently downloaded windows auto updates of SP2 which I did not want to do. My problems with Inter. Exp. and OUtlook Express closing out with error messages started then but is getting MUCH WORSE AND MORE FREQUENT. I have resisted downloading ANY MORE auto SP2 updates since.I do virus and spycheck daily--no problems there. No new software recently installed. Do I need to be doing these persistant SP2 updates now?
I have reset IE, changed setting and my IE will only open one window and not allow me to go back. Every time I try to open another IE window the original window becomes the new one. I don't have any virus or spyware, I have checked for all that.
.My problem is this... When I have multiple pages open I can't close just one. If I close one of the pages an error message pops up that reads "internet explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close" with the options "debug" , "send error report" , and "don't send".
