I cannot get the Microsoft Windows option to set because it stays set in the Custom option.

View 3 Replies View Relatedthat would show me what services on my PC I would be safe in temporarily stopping? I'm having some jitter in the capture of video through VIVO that I'm attributing to too many services running at once and using up so much resource. I can see it well enough in the final DVD production being played on a home DVD player that it is annoying. I can easily suspend the usual programs like anti-virus and such but there are a boatload of other services that run. If anyone knows of a program or a list that would indicate to me what services are mandatory.

I tried running a virus scan but it catch anything so I have no idea what I can do. I've tried system restore but that didn't fix it.
