----- Original Message ----- From: "Support-OrpheusComputing.com" We've been discussing getting the real video drivers for your "video card" and I can see from that info that it appears you don't have a card but have integrated video. This means you're going to have to get the video drivers from the PC manufacturer. Try searching that area you spoke of for "mhz" maybe it's listed like that. 74% is rather low with only ZA and AVG loading. There's a lot a programs you can download to track down or trace leaks, this is one: http://www.automatedqa.com/products/aqtime/index.asp You can find many in a search. -Clint Merry Christmas to all & God Bless Clint Hamilton, Owner http://OrpheusComputing.com ) http://ComputersCustomBuilt.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Harold B." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Go and download a little free program called Balarc Advisor. http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html It will answer all your questions about your computer. --- Ben Moore What an excellent link that is!!! (three exclamation marks). Anyone interested should know there is no space between "free" and "download" (there's a bottom dash there). At first I thought the "setup file" that downloaded wasn't doing its job, not realizing that it's not a setup file, but rather a link that opens a browser with all the computer's information on it --- even has my name (showing it got right into the Registry). --- Harold What's your CPU speed Harold? Do you have your video drivers installed? If you're running generic video card drivers your resources can be lower than they should. You could also have a resources leak. You can find a lot on that in search. --- Clint RESPONSE: 1. Using Find on the resulting page, neither "CPU" ("central processing unit" or any one of those three words) nor "speed" appears on the page. 2. Using Find, the only section where the word, "driver" appears is listed under "Display" as follows: Intel(R) 810e Chipset Graphics Driver (DC133 FSB133) PV 2.1 [Display adapter] HP D5259A [Monitor] (15.7"vis, February 2000) However, this dialogue with you guys has encouraged me to really look into those computer information programs, and using DirectX, and Graphics Diagnostics Utility (by Intel), I find tons of drivers, and some of them must be "generic video card drivers." If you need the list, I can easily send it to you. And how would I know if I have a resources leak? We'll let it all pass; I suppose that with AVG and ZoneAlarm in the Startup, opening with 74% resources free is par for the course .
