I think my Pismo needs some fine tuning. . .

2005-06-13 Thread Zoltan Batiz

Hello all,


My Pismo has been acting a little sketchy lately.  That's the best 
way to describe it.  Basically, all of the animations in OS X that are 
normally smooth and sleek, are now jumpy and quick.  Not sure what's up 
here.  Maybe I'm being too picky?  Maybe the hard drive is snagging?  
I'm not too sure yet.  Example:  In Safari, when you select Print, the 
window kinda rolls down. . .now it just pops down instantly. . .no 
roll anymore.  Any ideas?  I'm running 10.3.9 with a gig of RAM and a 
G3/500.  Thanks for any input,

Zoltan,

Have you checked your CPU usage? I had some sketchy and slow behavior 
and found out one of my background programs started to hog up to 80% of 
the CPU. I quit that program and things went back to normal.


Also have any of your appearance preferences changed? Maybe 'use smooth 
scrolling'?
