Artificial Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 try checking your cpu usage, under task manager maybe you run to much applications. or some files have been altered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator Gary McNabb Posted March 25, 2013 Moderator Share Posted March 25, 2013 Could be a number of things. Monitor your ram/pagefile usage, if it's getting high could be that. Monitoring your CPU temp might also be a good idea, especially if you have integrated graphics. You may have to change your power settings if it's getting too hot or something.

Moderator Gary McNabb Posted April 2, 2013 Moderator Share Posted April 2, 2013 You're probably running out of ram then. Double the size of your pagefile, if that works you might want to consider installing more ram. Out of interest, what operating system are you using and how much ram do you have?

Moderator Gary McNabb Posted April 2, 2013 Moderator Share Posted April 2, 2013 Okay, you are running out of ram. First off, Win7 64bit edition recommends 2GB ram. I'd recommend switching to 32bit or getting at least 4GB of ram total. You will notice a HUGE improvement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Gary McNabb Posted April 2, 2013 Moderator Share Posted April 2, 2013 If you have a spare flash drive, you could use readyboost to have it act like ram. Increasing the pagefile size will help a little, but it's not the recommended solution (writing to the harddrive is slow). There's nothing much more I can say to help sorry.
