Can someone help me please?option
I have recently formatted my PC. My version of Windows 2000 suddenly
started turning itself off and then wouldn't reboot or let me repair the
installation as it the registy files could not be copied accross. After
having some trouble getting Windows 2000 back onto my system I now have it
back up and running on an NFTS partion, i have also somehow managed to
install a copy of XP on my system as well so when I boot up I get the
to start up either one- my first question is is this causing the CPU usageto
go through the roof whenever I ask the computer to do something?files,
If not then I am at a loss- I am not even using half of my memory - but
whenever the internet or an appication starts then everything grinds to a
halt! I have tried all of the following:
1) Rebooted in safe mode and checked for spyware- nothing
2) Checked for visuses- nothing
3) Checked my services and disabled those that I could
4) tidyed up the hard drive of all non-essential files- temp internet
cookies etc.as
The computer is still running v slowly- it is becomming very frustrating
before the format and reinstall it was fine.that
Please can someone help I'd be very very grateful.
Thanks
James
P.S. If anyone can tell me how to get that copy of XP off my partition
would be great!!
You must launch the Task Manager and check which program
consumes most of your CPU resources.
WinXP is probably installed in C:\Windows. Rename this folder
to C:\WinXP.old, then delete it after one week if all is well.
