Chrome, Firefox, IE10 Comparison w/Poll
What Browser do you use? Comments on why, are welcome, but not necessary.
Out of my own curiosity, I made a little comparison of the top 3 browsers, Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer10,
ie; CPU usage and Memory usage.
Every browser works differently on every machine, too many variables to get in depth here.
I made this comparison for myself as I had noticed that out of the three I mentioned, I want to use the best
one for my needs and the one that uses the least amount of Memory & CPU overall.
My Comparison:
Starting with /Google Chrome[/url] Using Task Manager;
Running Chrome with 1 add-on[center
Very impressed with low running App Memory of only 69.9MB's and 0% CPU usage, however,
Chrome has 9 running processes using 510.2MB's of memory, plus the 69.9MB's, equals a total of 580.1MB's
Running Firefox with 9 add-ons. 2 extensions & 7 plugins;
/center]
1 running process @ 4.2MB's, plus 216.4MB's, equals 220.6MB's Memory usage and 1.4% CPU
You will also note, Chrome has 2 running background processes.
Running [bInternet Explorer 10[/url][/b] with 3 add-ons;
Extremely impressive with a total of 154MB's Memory usage, 0 running processes and only .5% CPU usage./center]
Again, you will note that Chrome still has 2 running background processes.
Each Browser was used 1 at a time.
Next will show all 3 browsers open at the same time;
[center
Chrome using a total of 214.3MB's memory & 8.3% CPU
Firefox using a total of 199.4MB's memory & 5.7% CPU
Internet Explorer10 using a total of 159.5MB's memory & 3.6% CPU
FF & IE10 meet my needs, where Chrome lacks the ability to use/show the Menu Bar and by this comparison on my machine, seems to be quite the memory hog.
Looks like I'm leaning to switch to IE10
Unhandled Exception Error 0x80040707 on Cyberlink PowerDVD

All images and links to malicious site removed.
I just downloaded the Cyberlink PowerDVD software from the HP website On my Windows 8 PC. After few days that it was installed on my system, I received a notification that I need to update my software. I run the update but it failed and crashed. And now, when I try to open the program, it didn't work. I downloaded the latest Service Pack but it gives an error:
Unhandled Exception
Error Number: 0x80040707
Description: DLL function call crashed: CLScan.GetHybridVGAMode
Setup will now terminate.
OK
Can someone please help me restore it? Thanks.
