very very slow

hi all!
good news is the AS5 finaly came!
bad news is the comp is still very slow...

i'll check in 4 hours like GCR said, hopfully it'll work faster then...
 
hey,

after you run the 4 hours, try cleaning up some spyware in your comp.
not sure whether you have tried this... do some registry cleaning too using CCleaner...

good luck :)
 
i dont know about that, see, it's newly installed on a formatted drive, anyways of course i'll try it but i dont think it'll help...
anyone think the clue might be with the screen turning on after 10 sec's from me pressing the ON butten?

OK so the temps are
51 for the CPU
39
43 for the fans

do i really need to wait a night just to varify?
i'm afraid it's not the paste...
or perhaps i did'nd use enough paste?
any ideas???
 
If the GFX card is made by LeadTek/WinFast then there's your problem as they count their VRAM before POSTing and on the Mesh it can take a while for the monitor to switch on.
 
yes it is,
although i did'nt get a word out of this:
"as they count their VRAM before POSTing and on the Mesh it can take a while for the monitor to switch on"
nothing i can do right?

anyway, why else could my comp go so slow?!:confused: :mad:
 
D925XBC Intel Board
intel pentium 4 3600
kingston 1GB DDR2 RAM
winfast 7800GT
SATA WD 80GB

anything else?
 
yes my OS is XP
my ram is a kingston 1g 667mhz ddr2 cl5
i know!
think re-installing windows will help?
i dont realy mind now that it's empty and all...
 
yeah, try that... *cross fingers*
I can't think of any other problem...

after you re-install windows, make sure you update all the drivers...
sound, video, etc... update your BIOS too, it might need it... not sure though
 
i've updated the BIOS,
i've also used scandisk and defragmented the drive!
but still the comp is slow!
my temp's now are:
45-6 when i'm not using 51-2 when i do
38 41
44 49

anyone?
please!?
i'm getting real depressed...:( :confused: :eek: :mad:

i've also ran Hitman pro 2, but my computer is stil slow

hmmm... at this point... I have ran out of ideas for solution, unfortunately...
maybe someone with more experience can help with the problem...
 
ok :( :(

GCR:
"If the GFX card is made by LeadTek/WinFast then there's your problem as they count their VRAM before POSTing and on the Mesh it can take a while for the monitor to switch on"

is there anything i can do to avoid this?
it's kinda annoying...

i've checked the BIOS and there it says.....
3.40 GHZ
800 MHz
533 MHz
weird...cuz it still says in windows
Intel(R)
Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.40GHz
3.40 GHZ, 1.00 GB of RAM
Physical Address Extension
what should i do??!!
anyway the comp is still slow!!!

i've loaded the default on the BIOS and re-inserted the BIOS jumpper
and the USB still isn't working!

i've read that my RAM might not be "comfertable" woth my board...
what do you think?

Click to expand...

I doubt it, all Leadtek cards do it and my old FX5200 spent a while on it's own BIOS screen...

The 3.40GHz is your clock speed, 800MHz will be your FSB and the 533MHz will be the RAM's clock speed.
