Hi, my computer system is Turion 64x2, ATI Radeon Xpress 1100 and 1GB DDR2. But the graphic doesn't go smooth when running warcraft 3.

I recently found out that I have 7 SVCHOST.EXE running... 2 Network service, 2 system, and 3 Local Service. (Dunno why there are so many). All of them but one takes less than 2800k mem usage but the exception one takes about 31196k.

Also, my zone alarm discovered that SVCHOST.exe is trying to have an incoming connection... which I found it weird because first of all, it is blocked by zone alarm, second of all... I don't recall SVCHOST.exe needs to have internet access...

Here is my log:

I wanted to add that... I used spyware doctor, norton, spysweeper, spybot, online scan, zone alarm, registry booster, and superantispyware.. but nothing related to this problem is found..

hey! I uninstalled BitComet, but my computer is still slower than it should be. So having 7 SVCHOST.exe isn't something weird?

I used a program call CPUinfo... and it tells me that my computer is running at 799.9MHz... But my system is AMD Turion 64x2 Mobile Technology TL50 (1.6GHz, 256KB L2 cache).

So yeah... I dunno what is wrong with my computer =(

ghost

Does seem to be a few... not to sure why.

That software might not be compatible with that computer.

Try CPU-Z or just look in the BIOS.

It takes my Turion 2 attempts to get the correct clock speeds too, that isn't an issue.

everytime you have a dll running svchost will run as well. See this:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314056

I would start by doing system scans (spyware and virus), disabling things via msconfig from running in start up

kariya

hey, i already used countless number of virus scan, spyware scan, and malware scan... no hope... any program you can intro me?

ghost

Download avast! antivirus then try a scan with that.

What is eating up all the resources? What is in task manager that is killing your performance? I would monitor your computer and see what it does when you use various things (normal useage) and then see when it spikes and what is eating up cpu cycles and memory. Then kill that process and try again.....

Process of elimination.

Or back up data and wipe and reload.
