CPU sucks.
Suck it back with a vacuum.


(It works, i've done it lol)

you mean you had a look at your own laptop

hahahahahaha xD

and hmm, that is rather strange, those programs shouldnt be eating much cpu at all.

 

[vannilla_latte]

here have a look...

 

[Phoenix Fury]

why the hell is ie using 26% i wonder

Oh well,

inb4 "use another browser and be cool liek me" etc

 

[SnowFox]

here have a look...

Thats in order of RAM, do it CPU order.


BTW 203MB to run IE? HOW MANY TABS ARE OPEN!!!


Decided to check my CPU/RAM.

Should i be smiling?

 

[Phoenix Fury]

I often get ie up to 1200-1600mb without even doing anything that would (in my mind) warrant it.

only two tabs are open =/ facebook and bos thats it

 

[SnowFox]

I just opened two taps on my IE and it capped at 10,000K. Something up with your IE, DL firefox or Chrome and check the difference.

here have a look...

oh noes!!! 2% of cpu!!!

 

[SnowFox]

I have 0% on everything

Epic sauce in a bottle right here.

 

[ohexploitable]

and scroll down, ur cpu usage says 67%, but IE + DWM + Winamp + Word is only using 45%

and it shouldn't be lagging at 67%

 

[SnowFox]

It has to be her IE. She might have those stupid Ad block things.

 

[ohexploitable]

but adblock is the best addon! and anyway... it shouldn't be using up cpu time, it just dloads web pages then removes ads

 

[SnowFox]

Then why is two tabs killing off 200MB of her RAM when mine only takes 10MB?

I dont think the DDRx xxxxMHz would make that much of a difference.

She is only showing processes from her user. She needs to click "show process from all users" to truly see what is happening.

IE is terrible. Get something else. I often have trouble with it. Sometimes if i use it and after i exit there is still some random ie process running, and unless i end it i cant use the desktop. It just goes inactive kinda, cant select anything. Weird

 

[vannilla_latte]

as requested..

so what now??

 

[SnowFox]

What proccessor/ RAM are you running,

 

[ohexploitable]

meh, just reformat, easiest option

 

[vannilla_latte]

heres the stats

 

[hscishard]

mamoz had a look at my laptop today =/

she said my RAM is fine..

but my CPU is off the charts. fluctuates from 20% to 100% =S

so she told me to end some processes. i did. and it made no difference.

now wat?

so 1. defrag

wat else?

Overheating CPU. I knew it.
