View 2 Replies View Relatedmy system (2.8GHz Pentium D Dual Core, 1 GB RAM, Dell XPS 400) just started getting stuck at 100% CPU load at all times. Also, task manager only shows one CPU graph instead of the usual split screen graphs shown since its a dual core system. This occured on a restart after I re-located the machine to another house. I thought maybe something was physically messed up since it had been moved but the problem doesn't seem to occur when I boot to Safe Mode. So, that makes me think its a software issue.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIntel DQ963FX motherboard and mated it with a Intel E2200 Dual core processor. I have 3 gig memory and a NVidia 9400 GT graphics card w/1 gig memory. The machine is not used for gaming but for everyday on line tasks. The on board graphics are disabled. I updated the Bios to the latest version and am running XP Pro SP3. I have the usual antivirus protection enabled, Purchased Zone internet suite, Nortons (kept disabled in case zone craps out)and malware bytes, Super anti malware, Spybot S&D and ad aware.Sometimes when I start this machine and go to Firefox,(or IE for that matter) the system will slow to the point that even audio is stunted. I have the latest java enabled so I don't think that is the problem. This motherboard has very little in the bios to tweak so that hasn't been tampered with too much (latest bios update was installed after the slow started). Whenever the slow down occurs if I restart the machine it will run up to speed for awhile then eventually slow down again. My old P-4 3.02 was sooo much faster that I regret ever having built this new clunker. . Is there a known problem with this mb or proc that I haven't found yet?

View 1 Replies View RelatedDue to a corrupt system file I did a repair using Recovery console. PC came back up with a few problems. Uninstalled most applications and Service Pack 2 and reinstalled. I have now noticed that my Athlon XP2 dual core processor is only running as one processor. In device manager it shows both processors and when the PC boots up it recognises that its a dual core processor. Yet when I run the Athlon utility that reports back processor information it only shows the one processor. Tried uninstalling the processors through device manager but nothing happens.Does anybody have any ideas how to fix this before I do a reinstall of windows?

I don't know why, so I try it with Triple Core... No change same like before but when i try it with Dual-Core it was OK. I install all drivers. I try old drivers, new drivers, beta drivers, new bios etc... bud i think it is in CPU, because on Dual-Core it was fine... Please tell me solution. I don't have any idea to correct this problem. TY.
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy quad-core processor is only running 1 core. I have scrawled the web for fixed and such, but I'm having no luck . Here are some images from my device manager, and CPU-Z for proof, and the problem.As you can see, my device manager doesn't even show any processors, and only shows my computer as a Standard PC. And on the CPU-Z, at the bottom, it only shows that i'm running 1 core! (Also the same on task manager) All chipset drivers etc were installed.I've tried a few things, optimizing my bios and such, but im abit of a novice when it comes to the bios.

I am looking to add extra memory to my computer for music purposes, what should I get I am after an extra 512mb of memory.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI added a 512mb stick and 500gb hard drive to an AMD 1.7mhz system that was running fine but just out of disk space (figured as long as the chassis was open to throw in the ram too). Now I can barely use the darn thing. Runs extremely slow. Audio and video and useless, responses are crazy - even the mouse is herky-jerky. Went into taskmanager and there is one program that seems to be using a lot of processor time but I alway have that one running even in the 'old' configuration. I can kill it and it helps a little bit but why should more resources make things worse. I have AVG running for virus checking and regularly run adaware and spybot for malware checking. Checked system settings and everything looks fine there as well - cache, VM, performance, etc. all set to normal levels (768mb by the way).

View 5 Replies View RelatedWhile I have found many solutions to this problem, these solutions don't work for the 64bit platform. All of my programfiles/microsoftoutlook/.... files have been corrupted, so i need to completely reinstall outlook, what i have tried so far is this:1)remove the isInstalled from the registry and reinstall windows explorer
Result:I can't find a version of Windows Explorer I can install on my computer because the installs always say that you cant install on a 64 bit platform
2 booted off xp cd, did repair Result: didnt help My Network Places now also doesnt work, but I believe thats because they share a common DLL in programfiles/microsoftoutlook/If i new someone else that was running XP64 I would manually get the files off them but I dont,

I bought my wife an HP desktop and ordered it with Vista 64bit OS. We ran into some issue that led to us buying a new printer and it does not run some video games we like to play. We just tolerated it for a while but she hates it so I was thinking about buying a copy of XP and loading it up on her system. Are there any issues with doing this or should it just work? I expect I will have to download some drivers for 32bit but that should be easy enough

I am having a hard time finding stores that either sell floppy drives or external floppy drives. But I need one in order to install my RAID drivers so that my SATA drive can be detected for installing XP on. I have the following setup (Stuff you need to know):Asus Vintage AH-1 barebones motherboard (AMD Socket 939)SATA 80GB harddrive (on RAID using the ULi utility)IDE 80GB harddrive, set to cable select, because this is technically my backup slave driver (too slow to run software from) (Yes, this system is outdated, but I need to make due with what I have until I can build myself the system I want) I need to be able to install my RAID drivers so that I can have my SATA drive detected. I have ideas, but I'm not one to be able to do things about them.
View 3 Replies View RelatedSo i'm upgrading my dad's computer right.For some reason I thought he had 2x1gb modules in it already and he was complaining about it being slow. I know its full of spyware and what not, so I went and bought another 2gb kit and brought win xp 64 w/ me.I go and and wipeout the machine, install xp 64 and boot it up. I then realize that this machine only had 512MB in it. I open it up (yah I know should have checked first) and see that his MB only has 2 slots in it. So I end up pulling out the 512 dimm and installing the 2 1gb modules.My question is now, is should I leave him be... or is it actually better for him to run win xp 32 bit edition seeing as we only have 2GB ram.His cpu btw is a pentium D dual core 2.66 GHz, which is 64 bit processor.
