Stuttering Overload - Cant Run A Single Simple Program

Apr 23, 2006

I have a dell with win xp pro with sp2, 2gb or ram, 2.4ghz intel celleron, i run mcafee securiety center. My primary use for a computer is internet, video editing, and listing to music. previously i was able to edit videos when some small programs were running, but latley my computer is spiking to 100% cpu usage. now i cant even run a single simple program like winamp or internet explorer with out spiking and stuttering, let alone even thinking about opening my video edding program, or editing any video. it stutters and is very slow. i have a feeling it has something to do with how many back ground programs i am running that i dont know about. Is there a program or software that will minimize all unnessary programs or take controll of what programs can run?

Stuttering Overload - Take Control Of What Programs Can Run

Apr 23, 2006

I have a dell with win xp pro with sp2, 2gb or ram, 2.4ghz intel celleron, i run mcafee securietycenter. My primary use for a computer is internet, video editing, and listing to music. previously i was able to edit videos when some small programs were running, but lately my computer is spiking to 100% cpu usage. now i cant even run a single simple program like winamp or internet explorer with out spiking stuttering, let alone even thinking about opening my video editing program, or editing any video. it stutters and is very slow. It is now very slow to boot, when in the past was a lot faster. Programs are just barley slower in opening. This happens online and offline. and it doesnt seem to matter how long my computer has been on, it happens all the time. I've tryed ad-ware and spybot thinking it was spy ware slowing everything down. didnt help. Is there a program or software that will minimize all unnessary programs or take control of what programs can run?

Installing Program On For Single User

Sep 27, 2006

We currently running Windows XP Home on our 2 Pc's at home. Four people use the PC's and we each have our own logins. Is there a way so that when my son installs new software, (he seems to install about 10 new programs per day), it will ONLY populate his program list on his logon and NOT the program list for the other 3 users of the PC? I notice that some installations ask if there will be a single or multiple users of that program, but what I would really like is to be able to be selective EVERY TIME.

PC Opens The Same Program Over And Over Again With Single Double Click

Jan 7, 2006

Every once in a while my pc acts really nutty. What happens is that I'll go to open a program (lets say Nero Burning Rom) and on a single double click Nero will open up 70+ times. Furthermore, it makes mostly all of my programs act up when this starts happening. For example, when I click the arrow in the system tray it expands and collapses tons of times before it stops. If I open Firefox my homepage sort of half loads over and over and won't stop. MSN Messenger opens up then freaks out when I put the pointer in its window (this happens in the above Firefox example too). All of this activity makes the pc unusable until it all stops. Speaking of when it stops, it does't stop with a restart, it just stops mid session. I thought it could be a mouse problem because the trackball I use is pretty ancient and I figured it just might have just petered out finally, but then I tried another mouse that I found laying around and it did the same things. One other thing I've noticed it (the trackball) doing is when it's not being used the pointer slowly crawls towards the top of the screen. I've run my anti-virus and all three of my spyware programs and none of them find anything out of the ordinary. So what could be causing this? I'm starting to think it might be my mouse port, but how would I find this out?

With JavaScript Overload Seem To Be Filling Up

Sep 27, 2007

My temp files seem to be filling up with temporary Javascript files in a short amount of time. I have used CCleaner, Spybot S&D, MS Mal Removal Tool, I have, I have updated Sun Java and I unchecked Save Temp java files in Control Panel.This helped but the problem is growing again.

I was checking out web set linkware, one of the pages had a box pop up to click OK to run script. This was on a lot of other pages on the same site and worked with no problem. This time there was no java on the page. I am wondering if this caused the problem and how do I fix it? I'm attaching some of the CCleaner logs from today.

Sudden Freezing, And Apparent CPU Overload

Sep 26, 2006

My comnputer just started freezing randomly, and I cannot listen to music and do something else anymore. Any action that MS Word, or Firefox, or IE, etc, takes, and the music starts skipping. Same thing with videos. The computer has just become very uncooperative in general. And the "activity light" of the computer that normally blinks, sometimes stays on, without blinking, for minutes at a time, and I am not doing anything.

Stuttering Sound WPro

Jul 1, 2005

I have this stuttering sound when I play MP3, WMA, and MPEG files but it seems to be most noticeable when playing MP3 files in Winamp. The computer is XP Pro SP2 with the latest patches etc. I have tried many things to resolve this stuttering but nothing seems to work. It seems that after a reboot the problem doesn't become apparent right away for what ever reason it takes time for this behavior to start, I don't know what triggers it to start the stutter.

Downloading Causing Stuttering

Dec 28, 2006

I got a new computer a few weeks ago and downloading anything causes whatever else I'm doing to lag and stutter. Its especially noticable in sound and movies but if its a fast download even the mouse will skip around. Even loading websites causes this. Offline everything works fine. Any idea what I could do to fix it?

Strange Stuttering Briefly Every Second

Aug 20, 2007

The problem is my Dell Inspiron 600m laptop running Windows XP Home has a weird symptom that just started up. Literally, every second my system has a brief pause or stutter for just a brief moment, like clockwork. From playing a game or video, to just moving a window around on the screen, or even just moving the mouse about, every second it'll just pause or come close to pausing, and then jump to where it should be. Almost like every second some background process is briefly using all the cpu.Here are the series of events, and then I'll give some more details of the problem itself.

Stuttering With Mouse, Audio, And Video

Dec 1, 2008

Specs if it matters
Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop
1.5 ghz
512 MB RAM
128 MB ATI Mobility Radeon X300
Windows XP Service Pack 3 (2 original, but updated to 3 over Windows Update)

I installed Windows XP SP 2 recently. Sometime after doing that and downloading numerous Microsoft updates and updated drivers for my Dell Inspiron 6000, I noticed that my mouse cursor stutters a little bit from time to time as I move it around. I think it happened even after a fresh installation of Winows XP, but I can't remember for sure.

I already run my spybot, adaware, and Avast virus scan, but they haven't fix anything. My drivers are all up to date too I think. Below is my HijackThis log

Get New Drivers In Simple Terms

Dec 9, 2006

I know what drivers are, in principle, in simple terms. But not in detail.I've read about reinstalling XP, cuz I have considered that I may have to reformat and do that. I know about making sure first that I can boot from my CD first, and so forth.But I don't know what I'd do to make sure I have all the right drivers. How do I find out which ones I need? Do I need one "correct" one per device on my computer? I.e., one for the CD-RW, one for the monitor, one for my printer, one for my mouse, and so forth?

Slow Laptop - Audio And Video Is Also Stuttering

Sep 22, 2009

My husband has a Toshiba Satellite L25-S1215 which is running Windows XP Service Pack 3. It was working fine, and then suddenly got extremely slow, and the audio on start-up is broken up/stuttering. When playing videos the audio and video is also stuttering. Thought Norton Internet Security might be the problem, and uninstalled it, but problems continue. When computer is turned on, it is VERY slow to bring up Windows, and then extremely slow to connect to IE. Can't even bring up Mozilla Firefox anymore, which he had used for several years with no trouble. While NIS was installed, it showed CPU usage as fluctuating between 10% and 100% with only NIS running. I have done a "hijack this" scan,

Taking FOREVER To Load And Simple Tasks

Apr 26, 2007

Well just recently my computer has been slowing to a crawl when I do (normally) simple tasks. Usually I can run a spyware scan on top of playing iTunes, working on a Word document and much more with no problems, but today I noticed that suddenly a scan by AVG alone is using nearly 70-80 percent of my processing power . Also Windows has been taking darn near forever to load. More than 2 minutes. I know this can't be normal. I've had this problem before but received almost no replies so please someone help. This is really ruining my computing experience. By the way I have an AMD Athlon X2 4200+. Any guesses as to what the problem might be?

Bootable Drive - Make Simple Boot Option

Is there a way to make a simple boot option to say, use this config.sys and this autoexec.bat?

Configure For ONE User / Administrator Just A Simple Boot-up Without Password

Mar 16, 2006

I suppose the title of this post could be something like, "Why can't XP be more like Win98?"But seriously: I have in front of me a File View of My Computer. In Documents and Settings, it shows me that there are apparently four accounts: Administrator, All Users, Default User, and me In each one of these there is, in differing combinations, things like My Documents,My Music, Favorites.. And, in some there are what appear to be administrative privileges (Local Settings). The confusion this is causing while transferring documents and files from the old machine is getting up my nose! (This is a piecemeal exercise as the old PC is still working as the office - word processing, spreadsheets, etc.)

Simple Boot CDUSB That Runs Batch File

Jun 13, 2008

So I have a few SP3 machine that give the lovely gdi32.dll blue screen on boot. I can solve it by booting an XP disk and going into recovery mode to copy a new gdi32.dll over the old one, but I was thinking since I am going to be seeing alot of SP3 updates, and a good deal have errored out already, it'd be cool to automate the fix just a little to save some time. Time adds up when you have to let the Windows CD boot up, and then type out the file paths for copying the file, etc.Is there a way to run a batch file from a bootable CD or USB drive? I want to boot up, run the bat, restart. Seems like it'd be a very fast and very easy solution. I just don't know how to do that.

PCI Simple Communications Controller - Basic Text Editing

May 27, 2008

I recently underwent a clean install of both Win2k Pro & WinXP Pro. In both instances, the DM is reporting that the 'Multimedia Audio Controller' and the 'PCI Simple Communications Controller' are not correctly recognized (drivers not installed).I've done some searching online and many people suggest that a dial-up modem is the culprit behind the messages. In fact, there isn't a dial-up modem installed in my system, only a 10/100 NIC which works fine with both Windows native driver and the maker's driver.I've also searched for the PCI commun. control. drivers online to find that I have nothing to download. I'm not entirely sure what this controller does, although I can most likely find the multimedia audio controller. It's worth noting that XP is acting flakey sometimes when I use explorer to navigate around directories, and that I was recently unable to install Sisoft's SANDRA diagnostics app. Otherwise, the system seems to be stable enough to use online and for basic text editing.

THIS IS NOT YOUR TYPICAL COMPUTER LOCKUP, I have been working on this problem for well over a year now ok, so take this seriously.I got the problem when I had little computer experience. I have not been able to enjoy almost ANYTHING in the world of online gaming or even simple flash games since the problem started, so im terribly frustrated. I learned several hundred new skills in order to tackle the problem, none have worked up to today
