  1. I have 20 processes on one machine and 21 on another. I went through all my running processes and services. Googled each one and found out was safe to disable. When I bought the Dell lap top their were over 50 processes running in Task Manager. I have lost 0 functions since I killed off the junk. Absolutely insane the amount of crap they have starting with the machines.

     

    Maybe I'll try that sometime..

     

    Here's the funny thing.... I like Firefox a lot, but never had a problem with memory, till about 5 minutes ago.

    OMG Bloated!!!

     

    I figured it out that since the web page was so long that it did this. My memory and CPU maxed out!!

    This computer is Windows 2000 Pro

     

    Now on my Dell (Windows XP Home) I did something similar when I watched a movie trailer in HD - once it was fully loaded, my page file usage was through the roof.

     

    My question now is.... why in Win 200 does it say Mem usage vs. Page file usage (Win XP) under Task Manager???

  2. Just a tip with taskmanager.If you place the mouse pointer on "Mem Usage" and click it will toggle the highest to lowest or vice versa.

     

     

    MY GOD?! How do you have like nothing running?!?! I want that on my Dell...then again, Norton does have like 5 processes running at once... that could be a start...

  3. What are your specs, hardware wise. It could be something else, not necessarily software. But, let someone with experience in reading HJT logs answer you before I start giving my 2 cents.

  4. If it's crashed on me...it did once..... ever....

     

    However, my IE 7 will randomly just close...I'll click a link after being on it for like 10 minutes, and then out of no where, it will just close, without any sort of warning.

  5. IDK anyone that has one. Kids in my school have basically iPods and nothing else, including me.

     

    My brother has a 2 GB San Disk Sansa, which is small, but has great battery life.

     

    (Get the Halo 3 Zune :P !!1)

  6. Right now intel's core 2 duo chips are the best hands down. They are supposed to be releasing a new line soon that is even better.(more powerful, better battery life) I can't remember the name though.

     

    PENRYN -- FYI...lol

     

    Intel's Penryn

     

    That is a really nice laptop actually. :P

     

    I'll probably stick with the Dell, but if I decide to reconsider, I know where to look. :)

     

    Also, for gaming.. it is clearly noted that AMD handles 3D applications better than Intel. The only downside I could find about AMD was shorter battery life, and it generates more heat.

     

    Not sure where you found that fact... Intel = Best thing out there. Pair that with a good graphics chip and your good to go. Core 2 Duo's totally pwn AMD's, so don't even think about buying that AMD!

  7. I looked..IDK..it might have already updated...

     

    IDK who else has an ATI card...but do not download the hardware update from Microsoft...I did a few weeks ago...restarted my PC...and my drivers were f@$%ed...it was in like, 4 bit mode lol. I got online and re-downloaded them from ATI..and it was fine. So word to the wise...trust the real drivers...lol

  8. What has happened to parenting skills these days?

     

    I don't think games consoles are something kids should have at just three years old. And a two week ban?!?! He'll have forgotten about it in three. I'd do the same to his Wii as he did to the TV, then he'd learn a lesson he wouldn't forget!

     

     

    Ya..I wouldn't buy a game system for a kid till at least 6 years old. I'd break the Wii too, but the parents probably bought it, and don't want to waste the money by breaking it.

  9. Cats are evil.

     

    Agreed.... none of you met my cousins' kitten...it clawed at EVERYTHING...it was so bad. I think it scratched at the eye of one of my cousins, just missing the actual pupil...(like it got the skin around it.) Like wise, my uncle and aunt got rid of it and a got a dog, who just happens to be hyperactive... :P . However it hasn't hurt anyone yet.
