• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.

My computer is unusually slow for a P4 3ghz w 1gb of ram and idk wats wrong...it takes like 5 seconds after i click a shortcut for it to startup...its quite annoying. :confused:
 
I think the cpu is overheatting and thermal throttling is kicking in
 
maybe you've got several Folding @ Home clients working as "service" :D
 
ocrazyitaliano: Use this to scan for spyware but update it first, restart the program and then scan.

load up task manager and sort the process list by CPU use and/or memory use and see what's using the most.
 
don't forget a virus check...

and look in task manager... how many processes are running?
 
Do a quick check for excessive dust on the cpu heatsink, you may very well be throttling, might as well eliminate that possibility.
